I have gone through all of the reccomendations by Frank

Saunders (Default Font, Temp files, turn of Virus

scanning, ran Ad-Aware, Spybot, CWShredder and submitted

the log created by HijackThis to forum.aumha.org-(no

answer on the log yet))  Outlook Express still will not

display any of the bodies of messages or attachments.  If

you place your cursor over the preview pane, it turns

into an hourglass.  That is all it does.  Any other

suggestions?

Try this and post back if it helps or not.  Go to the Start/Run line and

type:  regsvr32 inetcomm.dll



Let us know if that fixes the problem.  Thanks.

While I was waiting for a reply, I tried something else

that was posted from someone else.  That was to reinstall

Outlook Express by editing the registry so the system

didn't know it was aready installed and then download

Internet Explorer 6 SP1 from the Microsoft Download page.

It worked!  All the messages are back.  Since I only

changed the flag on the Outlook Express portion of the

registry, the download only took a couple minutes to

reload that portion.

Now that it is working I can't try your suggestion.

Reloading it also doesn't answer the other question of

what caused it in the first place....

how do you do what les did in simple terms ....change reg.......not sure how to do help me please...

thanks in advance you all have been great

That's why I was wondering if re-registering inetcomm.dll might not also fix

it.  Thought it was worth a shot.  Maybe one other poster will have tried

it.  Waiting for a response from him.
