internet..deleting the Pop3uidl file.. removing my account and re-doing it,

Is this a POP3 account?

Was OE closed when you deleted the Pop3uidl.dbx file?

Was there more than one account listed in Tools | Accounts?

If, Yes, Yes, and No, remove e-mail scanning.

Turn off e-mail scanning in your anti-virus program. It is a redundant
layer of protection that eats up CPUs, slows down sending and receiving,
and causes a multitude of problems such as time-outs, account setting
changes and has even been responsible for loss of messages. Your
up-to-date A/V program will continue to protect you sufficiently. For
more, see:

Why you don't need your anti-virus to scan your email

Note that for some AV programs, it may be necessary to uninstall the
program and reinstall in Custom Mode and uncheck e-mail scanning when the
option arises.
