Hi again Flor.
Being a little suspicious about this, I ran a number of scans on my
computer
today. Malware Antibytes threw up the below, which I have now
removed.
C:\Windows\AutoKMS\AutoKMS.exe (Trojan.AutoKMS) -
Hope the iol passwords haven't been compromised. Mind you, there is
nothing
on google to suggest that there is a problem. Apparently, this is a
file
connected with Windows 7 and 8 and sometimes shows upas a Trojan.
Take a
look those of you who know more about viruses than me.

Hi Paul,
It mayt have been a problem at HQ - gpo.iol.ie - then. When i rang the
tech
support number (for IOL gold, my package) 18000923924, there was no
respoonse.

Hi Flor.
Interesting, I had exactly the same problem with my iol server on
Sunday.
It appears to have resolved itself now.

Hi Gary,
Just yesterday (Sunday) I had an issue where my incoming email (IOL)
pop3 server wasn't working correctly, and would then repeatedly throw
up the logon username and password prompt even after I'd input them
correctly.
However it would also, periodically and for a while, come back and
fixed by itself.
In that event, there would be nothing you at your end could do,
except
endeavour to get a live human in the tech support to deal with the
issue.
have you checked the status of the capslock key? or is the password
mixed-case and could the case of some of the letters have been
jumbled?
Or, if the first letter was initially capitalised, change it to lower
case so that all of the password is in lowercase. (that happened to a
friend of
mine: for some reason unknown to them, the case of the first letter
mysteriously got changed.)

Good evening all.
A friend it using windows mail and lately when they go to look at
mail, it prompts them to put in username and password, they have
done
this correctly but it keeps coming up. How can I resolve this issue
and stop the prompt?.
