So are you using Outlook Express or Outlook 2003 as you indicated when submitting this question? In case of the first, you might want to repost in an Outlook Express forum as this forum covers Microsoft Outlook. Anyway, this issue is often caused by having a virus scanner installed which integrates itself with Outlook. Uninstall this integration component of your virus scanner and try again. You'd still be sufficiently protected by your on-access scanner.

If you are using Outlook 2003 refer the link below which describes about the Outlook account settings for Comcast. http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook/ha010956951033.aspx Sachin Shetty
