Default Outlook express trouble

I was browsing around and was looking at Outlook express, etc. When I tried to exit the page, it won't exit and keeps coming back to the same page. I can't get rid of it. Can someone explain how to get away from the OE page??
Thank you, Doodle bug7

Default

Were you on the Microsoft OE pages?
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/...e/default.mspx

you should always be able to close the browser - unless you might have been on a problematic page or website.

in that case best to just shut down the computer & reboot -
do not go back to that website or page again.

Default

It this the site?
http://www.timeatlas.com/email/outlo...ook_signatures

I can close /open or leave it with no problems , and it isn't showing as a 'bad" site ...


I don't have Outlook Or Outlook Express installed - I use Thunderbird for my email program.

They just came out with a new version that is very simple to set up - if you are interested -
http://www.mozillamessaging.com/en-U...#feature-setup

[New Mail Account Setup Wizard

Thunderbird 3 mail account setup This is the first thing you are going to observe when setting up an account in Thunderbird 3.
Instead of having to manually enter the settings, it will match against the database of email settings from popular email providers, thus, you only need to provide the name, email, and password. If IMAP support is enabled in Gmail settings, Thunderbird will automatically set it up for you.]


Thunderbird email is supposed to be safer and more secure than Microsoft's Outlook Express.

Default

I found the problem. The Default was accidentally set there and not mozilla firefox. I got to thinking about my start page with firefox and
thought why it wasn't first page................Thank you so very much.
