OE 6 problems in Windows XP

[jhmac]

MY Outlook Express 6 is causing me major problems, including connection problems and not sending attachment, although it will send small mail. I tried to uninstall it and a error note came up through the
control panal. How do I uninstall OE 6 completely even if I have to remove registry entries? Please help.

PSA: When someone asks a question about an Internet Explorer or Outlook Express problem, linking to the Mozilla website is NOT an answer. Can you imagine if we answered all questions like this?

"I can't install Linux."
"http://www.microsoft.com"

"I'm having problems with MySQL."
"http://www.oracle.com"

Sheesh.

Back to the original question, Outlook Express is a PITA to uninstall. TweakXP has a guide to manually remove it, but you might want to diagnose the cause of the original problem ("connection problems and not sending attachment") before you go down the uninstall route. Also, having OE installed does not preclude you from trying alternate email clients to see if they exhibit the same behavior.
