Re: Mysterious problem with email account
But of course! Brilliant solution! Where do people most often get infected with viruses and worms? Opening/reading emails! So, if you stop them doing that...

Good old Norton, good old McAfee... same as ever. ;-\

This may have something to do with the way Norton and McAfee handle your email: AFAIK they redirect it through their own servers for checking, and this may be what's not working properly. Don't take this as gospel; I've had nothing to do with either for some time, but that's what they used to do.
