Hi Justine, Like Paddy says, it may just be that your laptop needs to settle down for a few minutes, and indeed what you say seems to suggest this. However turning off OUTGOING e-mail scanning isn't to ludicrous as it sounds, provided you are confident you have a clean system. But either which way, it won't do any harm to try it out, and it certainly is something recommended by Norton with such errors.

I may suggest to Orange that if they don't sort this out, I'll be forced to end my contract with them. Yes, they have suggested to others turning the E-mail scanning off in the anti-virus programme, but that seems ludicrous to me!
