When I empty the junk email folder, it only does the last one. I have used
the file http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/941090 to repair it
once before. But now I am getting a message that says it the update does not
apply to my system.
This is a vista machine running nortan 360.

Then you may need to try it using the Vista SP1 update, if you haven't
installed it already. Note - expect this to take hours longer to install
than just the hotfix.

Hello,
It might not be agreeable to you. There is an option which will
permanently delete any junk e-mails instead of going to the junk e-mail
folder. If it's ok to you :
A) Windows Mail > left panel, click junk mail > top panel, click Tools,
click Junk E-mail Options, check the last box " Permanently delete ----"
B) Windows Live Mail > left panel, click Junk e-mail > top panel, click
Tools > click Safety Options > check 2nd last box " Permanently delete
----"

The undeletable messages are caused by your antivirus program.
At this point Windows Mail has been corrupted beyond any reasonable
repair attempts. Your best bet is to upgrade to Windows Live Mail:

Email scanning should be turned off in any anti-virus. Also exclude EML
files from the scan. It provides no protection not provided by the regular
resident protection.
Besides that, McAfee and Norton are not compatible with Windows Mail and
Outlook Express and should be uninstalled. The latest version of Trend's
anti-virus seems to be causing problems too.
