BACKGROUND: Lately I've noticed that when I check my email Windows Mail seems to be stopped/stuck while checking a newsgroup for new messages. I've discovered that it may be in that mode (checking a particular newsgroup) for over an hour. I solve the problem at the time by clicking stop, and then it checks for messages and I find a number ofmessages sent over the previous hour or more.
I know of the setting to determine how often to check my server for email. Is there another setting somewhere that determines how often the newsgroups are checked? I'd be
happy to have the newsgroups checked only when I open a newsgroup, but I don't know how to do that.
I heard Mac has perfected this misterious way of checking spelling and grammar in any window that has text. Can the all mighty Vista do that? I have Vista Ultimate x64, about as expensive as it gets, yet I seem to need to buy separate programs to check my spelling in say yahoo messenger or Firefox or whatnot. Is there any free way to spellcheck anywhere other than MS Office?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI tried what Frustrated Gloucester advised but when I clicked on Tools (outside the e-mail window) the only "options" listed is INTERNET OPTIONS no down arrows that I saw at the bottom. When I clicked internet options is shows the usual tabs...General, Security, Privacy, Content etc. etc. On the General Tab there is a Language button below "appearences" but ENGLISH is already listed. Even deleating English and re-entering english as the language does not even highlight the apply button and does not fix the problem. No wonder people roll their eyes when I tell them I use Vista Home Premium.
View 9 Replies View RelatedIs anywhere a list of all applications supporting OCSP checking on various platforms such as Vista/2008/7/R2 etc.? Is this a generic feature revocation checking on the systems which is by default used for all revocation checking or is that dependent on each application asking for this type of check?

View 5 Replies View RelatedA month back I bought a Dell Latitude D630 with XP Pro installed. After seeing that Vista SP1 solved a bunch of problems with Vista I decided I want to go with Vista on my laptop. I bought the full version of Vista Business from the Windows Marketplace. Microsoft says (unless I misunderstood) that there is a valid upgrade path from XP Pro SP2 to Vista Business. I am starting the install from the disk and from within Windows. The Upgrade Advisor says I am ready to go. But...When I enter my key and move forward upgrading is grayed out and is unavailable. There is a message on the screen that says upgrade checking has been disabled.

Fix the following problem.
Windows Update error 8024402C
If you receive Windows Update error 8024402C while checking for updates, you might need to do one of the following: If the computer is connected to a network at work, contact a network administrator. You probably receive updates using Windows Server Update Services (WSUS), a service that enables network administrators to deploy and manage updates for all computers on a network. For more information about WSUS, go to the Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) website.If your computer is usually connected to a network at work (for example, if you use a mobile PC but you are currently using it at home or at another location), you probably receive updates using WSUS and can not receive updates by connecting directly to the Internet or to another network, such as a home network. To solve the problem, connect to the network at work and try checking for updates again, or contact a network administrator.If the computer is connected directly to the Internet or to a home network (and never connected to a network at work), you might need to set Internet Explorer to automatically detect local area network (LAN) settings so Windows Update can go online to obtain updates. To do this, follow the steps below.....
I am running Vista Home Premium (32-bit) on my laptop. All of a sudden, at boot I started receiving the above message, followed by: "One of your disks may need to be checked for consistency." Then, CHKDSK proceeds to verify the files, and the boot completes. This routine now occurs each time that I boot the machine. I don't seem to have a problem that I can detect. How does one get this message to be bypassed, assuming that there is no problem?
