I have microsoft outlook 2002 SP-2 running on Windows XP
SP-1. Each time I switch off the computer or log off,
outlook "looses" the information about the pop3 server
value and it adds to it place "localhost". At the same
time it adds the actual value of my pop2 server to the
username of the account. For example assume that the pop3
server is "who.are.you" and the username is "myname".
When I restart the PC it will put in the POP3 Server the
value "localhost" and it will have as my
username "myname/who.are.you".
At first I thought it might be a trojan or something like
worm.blaster but I scanned the pc and it found no known
viruses.
Can anyone help me on this?
