Try this

START | Run
type in Regedit

and press ENTER

Press the + sign next to HKEY_CURRENT_USER to expand it.
Click on Identities subkey

rename it to Identities.org

Now try to start OE. It should start up as though it hadn't run before.
You can set it back up then import the old messages into it then.



I am talking about OE. There is nothing I do to generate that error. I get
that msg when I first open OE.

I have no idea what service you are talking about. What do you do to
generate the error?

Hi Steve

I hope you can help me with an additional problem that I get. Often it
says "This service does not work with Outlook Express". How can I
correct the problem?
Thanks

It has nothing to do with the location of the message. The language
attribute is set to show which language the parser should use.
Javascript is the default. See
http://msdn.microsoft.com/workshop/author/dhtml/reference/properties/language.asp

I think Jim was just complaining about the script being their to begin
with.

I think Jim is referring to the script language in Ken's reply:

<SCRIPT language=javascript>
if (!ccTest('DH_FREE'))
document.write("<style>span.cc603622
{display:inline!important}</style>");
else document.write("<style>span.cc603622
{display:none!important}</style>");
</SCRIPT>

The script language is not needed in a newsgroup message.

Hi Jim

I am interested in knowing why scripting is bad. If it is, I need to
ensure that it is disabled on my computer.
Thanks

Ken:

Please stop using that scripting example to post. You can take the
text from any article and paste it into Notepad, then from there
into your message. Scripting is disabled on many computers these
days and all your reply does is throw up "scripting errors." HTML
is really not needed for posting that information. Thanks.

my Inbox.

| For all I've tried it says "This service does not work with

| Someone please walk me in from the beginning, step by step.
