Default Security Policies, No Longer Activate An URL Received In An Incoming Email Directly
May 7, 2009
Recently some default security policies has been changed on my Vista, apparently as the result of upgrades to my system.
1: I can no longer activate an URL received in an incoming email directly but must copy the URL to the address bar in my Internet Explorer. This makes sense and I can live with that.
2: I discover that I can no longer open some of my word documents "created in an earlier version of Microsoft Office". The message refers to registry policy settings and the help system refers to a Microsoft knowledge base article 922850 that leads me nowhere useful.

I have several email accounts configured on my windows mail on my Vista home premium and one of them is configured as the default email. When I reply to emails received on email accounts other than the default email the "from" email address does not change to the email address of the received account.
I understand that the email address in the "from' field when I start a "new" message or create mail is that of the configured default email. My question is while replying to an email received in other configured accounts should not the "from" field email id change from the default email id to the email address of the email to which is replied.

I need to map a network for school, but the network is incompatible with the default security. My school's website had a set of instructions for how to make my computer compatible, but they required going into Administrative Tools and then to Local Security Policies, and for some reason Local Security Policies is not there.
Basically my question is where the heck did Local Security Policies go? I feel like this should be an easy enough question, but nothing I've tried has worked.

To cut down on malicious software applications and beginner computer users from changing critical computer settings, Microsoft has included a new feature called User Account Control, primarily known as UAC. UAC is a great step in the right direction. It can be used to prevent a beginner computer user from making changes to their computer by restricting them from accessing or even saving any changes to critical areas. UAC is also helpful against Spyware and other malicious software because it will require the user to consent to the action, before any system changes are made.
UAC is a good feature but sometimes it is necessary to tweak it a little so that it is less annoying for more experienced users. For example, an advanced user may be overwhelmed by the number of pop up authorization they receive. By tweaking the settings they can reduce the number of those they see as well as completely disable UAC. Although I do not recommend you completely disable UAC, you can fine tune it to be easier to get along with.
1. To get started, open up the Local Security Settings MMC to show the local security policies by running secpol.msc.
2. Navigate through Local Policies and Security Options.
3. Scroll through the list on the right of the various security settings until your reach the User Account Protection settings. Refer to the list below of the various settings, to change them, just right click and select Modify. Items in bold are the default values.
User Account Control: Admin Approval Mode for the Built-in Administrator account ...

My computer is running the concistency check. It's at stage 3 and when it's almost complete it's starts to "replace invalid security Id with default security id for file ******" it's been doing this for a while now and I was wondering what I can do to speed it up. It's currently at 170000, and if I try to restart the computer the login screen will not load if I skip the disk check.

I have a wireless network in my home. I just purchased a Sony laptop with Vista Home business installed. When I try to get in Internet Explorer, many times I am unable. My network security key seems to always default to another code and I have to retype mine in in order to get on the internet. What can I do to have my key code be permanent?

Does anyone know how to put a cap on how many emails I can receive? In other words, if I were to want no more than 50 emails, how do I set that up? I have searched everywhere. When I had XP, it held a certain amount and then would bounce back to sender saying "mailbox full". Is this possible for Windows Mail on Vista Home Premium 64 bit?

I am running Windows Vista home edition and when I receive my email using Windows Mail, it says it is receiving the email ok but then it all disappears. There are no messages in the inbox or any other folder. I tested that my email is getting to my mailbox on my ISP'S server by using their webmail. I have had people send me test messages and they
all show up in the mailbox. After I start up Windows mail and it says it is receiving "n" messages and then they disappear, I logged back onto my webmail and all the mail is gone so I know it is being sent to my PC.
Can anyone help with this problem? I have no idea where the messages are going to, they just seem to disappear. I hav uninstalled the antivirus program that I had because I thought maybe it had something to do with it but that did not do any good. I have no other firewalls or anything running on the PC outside of what comes with Vista.

When I repled to an email it was not received by the original sender. I didn't receive a message telling me that the email had not been received. I then sent a test email and copied myself. I received the copy but again the recipient didn't. My pal then sent an email to a number of his friends requesting a reply and he received replies from all of them. So it seems that he is receiving emails from everyone except me and I'm sending emails to everyone except him. I should state that this has only happened within the last week, up until then I had been sending emails to this address without any problems.

A month ago I could send emails out of my Windows Mail account, now I can't. I can only receive mails. I've tried dissabling my antivirus, lowering internet protection and nothing. This is the error message I get. The connection to the server has failed. Subject 'test', Account: 'Vina Corral Victoria', Server: 'mail.corralvictoria.cl', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 10051, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E This is driving me crazy.

I can't seem to find anyone else who has this problem. I can send and receive email and I can send email with attachments in Windows mail. BUT when I get an email with an attachment, I cannot open it. Nothing happens. I have run Regcure which is the standard for problems with Windows Mail, but it did no good. I am running Vista Premium Home on a Lenova laptop, a T61 -- fairly powerful.

I have not been getting email from one friend. She has checked that my address is typed correctly ( besides, I am in her contacts and have been for a long time - and that is how she addresses the mail). I am not receiving her mail in inbox, or deleteds, or spam. I have checked to make sure she was not inadvertantly blocked, and she is not on the blocked senders list.

Cannot send or receive email. Always receive error message when Windows Mail tries to connect to ISP server. Nothing wrong with ISP provider, problem lies with Microsoft Host Name. I always receive error message displaying "Socket error 10061, error number OX800CCCOE". Does anyone know what Microsoft screwed up this time?

I just received an email that also has an attachment. There is a spot for the attachment (picture) to actually appear in the email--there is a red square box with a little "x" on the upper left side where the picture should be; but there is nothing in the box. But I can open the attachment with I click on it. The attachment is: image003.jpg(12.5KB). I am running Vista Home Premium with Norton's 360.

This keeps happening. Let me note that I never have missed paying a bill to Comcast. Why do people keep getting the messages they write to me back again? Here is what the most recent one said. "Sorry, we were unable to deliver your message to the following address.
< my email address>:
Mail server for "comcast.net" unreachable for too long" I collect my email numerous times a day. Is there something I can do to receive email again? I do get some email but many times people are getting them back again.

I'm trying to set up my Windows Email and when it comes to the POP3 & SMTP I'm not quite sure what I need to put there in order to send and receive emails from my windows. I've tried everything and nothing works. I don't see anywhere online for assistance with this I'm not sure if you put microsoft.pop3.com & microsoft.smtp.com because when I tried that it didn't work.
