ellytoomey

when I open OUtlook, my email are being "eaten" and delete automatically into
my deleted folder. In other programs like "My pictures" when I click on a
picture it asks if I want to send it to my recycle bin?
Any suggestions on what to check?

So, let me just make sure I understand the problem.

If you click on *any* file in Windows, it asks if you want to delete it?
Even an icon on the desktop?

When is the last time you ran a full virus scan on this system, and how up
to date is your virus definitions file?

Just in case I misunderstood, what version of Outlook are you running?

1. Make sure that you have not added your email address or its domain, to
your Junk Filter or Block Senders List:
In OUTLOOK> TOOLS> Options> Preferences> Email> Junk Email> Block Senders>
Make sure your email address or the domain is not listed there.
2. If you are using a third party spam killer like SpamCop or PopFile, make
sure that you don't have your email address listed in the program
preferences section to be blocked. You may need to temporarily disable them.
3. Some security and antivirus suites have a built in Spam Blocker, make
sure that is turned off.
4. Initially turn off all message rules that delete messages when they
arrive. If this fixes allot of your problems, you may need to delete the old
rule, create a new one, or just move the rule to a different position of the
list. Most of mine are on the bottom of the list. Also add "Stop Processing
More Rules" as an Action to all your rules.

Um... let's try simple things first. Did you check to make sure the Delete
key on your keyboard isn't stuck?

Disable your antivirus or -spam program and try again. Does it still
happen?
