Any frequent reader of this newsgroup would know that Trend Micro
causes problems with Windows Mail (as do most Norton and McAfee
security products). It's not that there is something wrong with Vista,
it is more an issue of the antivirus programmers taking illegal shortcuts,
which often doesn't show up until an update comes along. Most of the
other antivirus vendors had no problem making their products compatible
with Vista. If you don't want to spend any more money on this, download
and install one of the compatible free choices:
AVG free edition:

or
Avast free edition:

With either of those, during the install phase you must select custom
install, and then deselect the email scanning option.
