Huge MSN web site ad – the page background!

I came across this a couple of days ago and found it a novel (at least for me) way to get the message across to the viewer. The huge MSN web site ad is not ‘intrusive’ in the true sense of the word but does change the ‘complexion’ of the page.

How to fix 0X800CCC0D error I receive in Outlook Express version 6? I want to check for new messages and the program is showing this error number.
Milton Banks

The error number 0X800CCC0D is shown by Microsoft email clients, the popular Outlook Express and Windows Live Mail, when the program cannot find the host (refer image below). As you probably know, when someone sends you an email, it doesn’t arrive on your computer straightaway. It is first stored on your email account on a server, a computer connected to the internet 24/7. To download the messages to your computer, you need to use an email client/program.

I want to use Shaw email with Outlook Express and I already have the program on my Windows XP computer. Shaw told me that I need to set up the email account but have no idea how to proceed. Would greatly appreciate any help in this matter.

Get Shaw email on Windows 7 – Windows Live Mail

I had Outlook Express installed on my old system and used the Shaw email with it. Now I have a new Windows 7 laptop. How can I get Shaw email on this computer? I don’t see any email program that I can use and desperately need to check the account for some important messages.
Michael Dickerson

Though Outlook Express is missing on Windows 7 operating system, a nicer and better, as some may opine, alternative is available in Windows Live Mail. However, this new email client differs significantly from Outlook Express in the way it organizes email accounts and messages. There is no common inbox because each account that’s added in the program gets its own set of five folders – “Inbox“, “Drafts“, “Sent items“, “Junk e-mail” and “Deleted items“. So if you have 3 Shaw email accounts, you’ll end up with a 3 inboxes and 15 folders!
