IE9 on Vista keeps freezing when Outlook is running; other programs continue to run well (on Windows Vista) even when IE9 is frozen, and IE9 does not freeze up except when running Outlook or has a tab connected to Outlook.com.

 

Ctrl+Alt+Del starts up task manager ok, and End task closes IE9 properly, which then works well until Outlook is running, and contiues to behave with text based emails. It most often freezes when following an email link to a video clip to a youtbe or vimeo link; the link will play well, but Outlook and IE9 will freeze on trying to return to outlook, either by selecting the 'Back' button, or by closing the tab the link was on.

 

Any suggestions out there?

I am not receiving emails to my inbox. I have gone through all of the items in my Options to manage my account and have not found the solution.
I'm starting to work with someone in another state. They set up an email account for me, they said through outlook (and gave me an address and password)  I'm not too computer savvy and don't know how to set up/access the account. Can someone help me with this ?
i would like to migrate from google apps to outlook.com for my primary domain (call it primary.com)
frankly i find the constant new stuff on google just too much and i don't use 90% of it
i love the simplicity of outlook.com

i can work my way through setting up outlook.com with my own domain, no problem

but i currently have 3 outlook email address, 1 primary and 2 aliases (under the primary)
call them *** Email address is removed for privacy *** and *** Email address is removed for privacy *** and *** Email address is removed for privacy ***

i would like to end up with my own domain as my primary outlook.com address and then have my current *** Email address is removed for privacy *** as an alias and keep one of the other 2 current aliases (i would delete one)

so i would like to have

primary.com as my main address
*** Email address is removed for privacy *** as an alias
*** Email address is removed for privacy *** as a second alias

obviously all seen with a single sign on in a single account

if this makes sense, can anyone kindly tell me if this is doable 
i guess i could try but i just don't want to fiddle with all my mail records until i have a sense if it possible

thanks!

10/26/13: WINDOWS LIVE MAIL: I NO LONGER HAVE NOTIFICATION POP-UP; STILL HAVE TONE NOTIFICATION


How can I restore the pop-up notification in Windows Live Mail while retaining the attendant tone notification?

Can someone please tell me where I can find the official codecs for movie maker?

I'm trying to import a .wmv file, but get this error:
001.wmv could not be imported. The required codec was not downloaded automatically because the Download codecs automatically check box is not selected in the Options dialog box.
I selected the check box and was able to import the file, but since I did that movie maker crashed regularly, and my computer went to a crawl.
After running my security software, I discovered my computer had been infiltrated. I removed the threats, but found my computer did not perform as it did before, and movie maker continued to crash. So I started with a fresh OS. I don't want to go through the same drama, by allowing the automatic codec download. So I would like to know where I can download the genuine codecs.
Thanks
