Over the past two months I have experienced a frustrating problem with Windows Live mail and wonder if any other users have had the same problem. I have Windows 8.1 installed since last November and have Norton Internet Security running. For several days everything will be OK then I find that when I open Live mail it does not download the messages - I just get a green progress bar showing it is downloading one message but nothing ever happens. At this time I usually check Norton Internet Security and find that live update has not been done for up to 24 hours. I run this manually but still get the messsage that live update is 24 ours out of date. I then cannot run a Quick Scan. In frustration I usually switch off and cool down for a couple of days. Then I find that live update is working and can then do a Quick Scan. After this i usually find that Windows Live Mail will download any messages from the server. It seems that one system is dependent upon the other but i cannot put my finger on what is causing the problem. Anyone had this happen to them and if so what was your solution?
