No, you said you can create a new identity but it (or OE) stops responding:

...When I try to create a new identity, I get through the
process, click "Finish" and OE 6 stops responding. When I restart the
software and switch to the new identity it immediately stops responding.


Tim, how is your original identity working currently? Did this problem switching identities exist before you installed IE7?

OE was not running. I did a cold boot, turned off anti-virus and
anti-spyware software, then installed. I have even done this and
re-installed. I have even applied the Microsoft update for the OE6/IE7
issue. The only thing that is new, and it wasn't on my machine before I did
all of this, is Windows Defender.

Now I have noticed something new; OE will not follow hyperlinks. They are
recognized as being a hyperlink, color, cursor change and address in the
status bar, but nothing happens when I click on the link.

Did you disable your anti-virus application and any anti-spyware
application /before/ installing IE7?

I have e-mail scan turned off. I did find an article regarding something on
this order, but the related update didn't help either. The e-mail
identities I already have work okay, it's just that I can't create any new ones.

I am running OE 6 (6.00.2900.2180[xpsp_sp2_rtm.040803-2158]) and IE 7
(7.0.5730.11CO). When I try to create a new identity, I get through the
process, click "Finish" and OE 6 stops responding. When I restart the
software and switch to the new identity it immediately stops responding. I
have e-mail accounts set-up with two different ISPs and this happens for both
of them.

Is there a problem with the combination of OE 6 and IE 7? If so, how do I
correct the issue?
