If you are a Windows XP user and are experiencing problems with
Outlook
Express 6 connecting (error 10061, 0x800CCC0E) when you log on from
one user
to another and do not want to uninstall your Norton software than
read on.
This problem started to occur right after I did a Windows Update
(4/11
security updates). The following solution worked for me and may
work for you.
1. Turn off Automatic Updates located in the Security Center.
2. Do a System Restore to the date prior to when you installed the
last set
of security updates. To check the date, go to Add/Remove Programs
and at the
top of the page select "Show all Updates." This will allow you to
view the
date the updates were installed.
3. Disable Norton
4. Run Windows Update to reinstall all security patches
5. Enable Norton
6. Always disable Norton before downloading any future security
updates
using Windows Update. To do this, turn off Automatic Updates and
select the
"notify me" option. This will allow you to disable Norton before
downloading
and installing any future security updates.
No one has reported, as of yet, if uninstalling the Updates and then
reinstalling them with Norton disabled will work as well. I didn't
really
feel like testing that solution. But, for someone that doesn't have
Windows
XP (System Restore), this could be a fix to the problem. Don't
know?
I find it rather strange that anyone would trash their Norton
program if
they have never experienced any previous problems with OE. It has
still not
been "confirmed" that Norton is "directly" to blame for this
particular issue.
Personally, I find it very hard to swallow that this issue has any
direct
correlation with the problems associated with Norton and OE based on
many
user reports that none of the workarounds that have been suggested
and used
in the past to solve such compatibly issues with Norton and OE have
worked on
this "particular issue" other than uninstalling Norton all together.
Wow,
that was a mouthful! Also, that there have been numerous posts on
several
forums that this issue occurred right after users installed the
4/11/07
security updates.
I just don't like what I've been reading lately about Windows
Updates and
conflicts with third party software. To be quite honest, I've had
more
problems with Windows Updates than with Norton, and have found more
professional articles related to security update glitches than
problems with
Norton and OE. By the way, I turned off the email scanning feature
when I
first installed the program.
Happy computing everyone!!!
If you have anything from Norton installed the best thing you can do
for your computer.
If you have Norton on a Chinese language computer and let Norton
update you won't be able to restart Windows.
