Question asked on Aug 1, 2014
I use Windows Mail for my email (Windows 7)
When I try to access my email account on my PC a popup appears.
     Windows Security
     Logon to Shawmail...
     User Name:
     Password
     Box to Remember my Credentials
I have not made any software or hardware changes.  I just turned the computer on & this popup started appearing.
I have not made any changes to my email acct.  I do not need to logon each time I open my email.  I have the box checked that says I don't need to authenticate.
My incoming email works just fine on other devices that do not use windows.  ie:  phone & iPad.
Last microsoft update was Microsoft Sliverlight 5.1.30504.0 on July 25 2014  Problem started on July 29 2014
Thank you...this is very frustrating!
