    i installed mcaffee, but this was after the problem occured. the only way to view my messages is to go to the message properties and read it.

    Don't Uninstall IE!

    I am having the same problem. Unfortunately I tries to uninstall IE and OE. When I tried to reboot I can't get back into Windows. I can't get into Safe Mode through F8

    Is this some kind of new virus?

    I wish I could help more, but several of your question could possibly be answered by a google seach. ie: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=focus+interactive&btnG=Google+Search
    edit:
    Do any of these (google links) sound like something you installed? That's how I first check if I'm not sure of a program as sometimes the company name is used and not the specific software's. As Star said, DON'T FORGOT TO BACKUP before deleting anything there. Take it from someone who found out "the hard way'.

    What you need to do is go to Start, Run and type in regsvr32 inetcomm.dll and click on OK. This should take care of the problem.

    Must be an echo in this thread..... Kaula posted the fix earlier, but the original thread starter never followed up wether it worked or not ;)
