In the midst of trying to get the internet and networks operational today, my laptop was attacked by some type of virus and then the spyware attack followed! It completely wrecked my laptop and I’ve spent most of the day just trying to get it back up again. It all seems to be fine EXCEPT my email! My Outlook stopped picking up email completely. I tried everything I know – updates, resetting passwords, finding solutions online, etc. Nothing has helped. So tonight, I went out and spent the money to buy the Microsoft Outlook 2007 edition. I thought this might remedy the situation. It hasn’t! My email still will not connect to the server to send or receive. I know that the server is working because I can find email through webmail programs. I just can’t get it to do anything through Outlook!! I think it’s a Microsoft conspiracy of some sort. I don’t consider myself “computer stupid” but times like this make me crazy!
I guess tomorrow will be another wasted day of just trying to get my email working…and I have 4 deadlines by the end of the week. Ugh…
