Re: Header only showing no message

When I open outlook express I can see the headers only but cannot see any
message. the wierd thing is that any message with html will sho an
attachment which I can open by clicking the paper clip and the message will
open in a browser. However, any plain text will not be seen in the preview
pane or when I open the message. How can I fix express to see all my
messages which appear to be somewhere in my computer.
thank you


From http://www.fjsmjs.com/OE/blnkmess.htm

Several possible causes and therefore several possible fixes:
1. Go to Start | Run and type
regsvr32 inetcomm.dll
and press <Enter>
If this doesn't work carry out step 6 and then repeat this step.
2. Go to Tools | Options | Read | Fonts and set Western (ISO) as the default.
3. Clear Temporary Internet Files and the Temp folder.
4. Turn off email scanning in your anti-virus.
5. Someone else reported that re-installing OE using the last method in this article fixed the problem:
How to Reinstall or Repair Internet Explorer and Outlook Express in Windows XP
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=318378
Method 2 works on earlier versions of Windows.
6. Eliminate any scumware.

Note that AdAware and SpyBot S & D will each catch some things the other won't. Also, each needs to be updated before every use, even when just downloaded. There's also a lot more to do than just those two programs. CWShredder is also available here:

Alternative download pages for Ad-Aware, Spybot, HijackThis and CWShredder may be found on this page:
http://aumha.org/a/parasite.htm.
If trying everything at that site does not fix the problem try step one (regsvr32 inetcomm.dll) again.
