    Unhappy Can't Activate My E-mails

    I tried to read my e-mails on my Microsoft Outlook facility this morning but it would not activate - first time ever! A window appears requesting that I load my CD for MS Office 2003 and enter reg nos etc.
    The e-mail facility has never behaved like this before and I've never had the MS Office 2003 CD (Mesh only provided a trial copy if required); I assume Microsoft Outlook must have been pre-loaded. Anyone had the same prob and what to do to resolve?
    Any useful comments appreciated.

    BJ

    Outlook is part of MSOffice, and is NOT free software in any way, shape or form. it will have been pre-installed along with the rest of your Office trial. you probably hit a limit on either time or number of runs.

    Outlook 2007 is about £80 retail.

    Suggestion; unless you absolutely MUST use Outlook, try Thunderbird instead. Fast, free, easy to use. And can also import your mail etc. from Outlook.
