[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]LUGs, WARNING: Yesterday I finished installing EudoraPro 4.0. It worked just fine until it downloaded a message from: paw@mail1.foxir - which apparantly is hundreds of pages of e-mail addresses!! It has completely frozen my program ( I am writing this on Eudora light). I don't know what it is or where it came from. If you find it - delete it if you can. I knew something was wrong when it took about 15 minutes to download from the server - I thought it had just hung up and went to drink some coffee. I thought I should mention this problem for the LUGS information. The next section is what I have been doing and hopefully I can get some help for computer experts and is not for general information. HELP EudoraPro 4.0 is entirely frozen. I don't want to uninstall it if I don't have to as I don't want to have to hand enter all the addresses - again in 3 days. The file did not go to the trash - or load - it just sat there. For a while I could read and send mail through the Leica users mailbox (paw is in the "In" box) but after it froze up the last time on the "In" box I had to stop the computer and when I come back it is to the frozen "In" box. I tried to delete the file through Windows Exployer and DOS. I erased the file IN.MBX as it pertained to the paw message (took nearly 20 minutes to do it) used note book and saved it. Didn't work Those you have Eudora Pro - any suggetions?? Anyone know what this thing is??? It doesn't show up on my virus scanner as a virus - although I did have a registry problem, which was fixed. One startup the computer also shows the error message:"The following file is missing or corroupted: C:\2015\2015PL.SYS Error in config.sys on line 26, which I think is the above file. Please e-mail me privately at either: n5xrd@telepath.com or n5xrd@juno.com Thanks Dick Hemingway Norman, OK
