As far as I am aware there has been no upgrade dowloaded on my computer but
it has started a pop up message EVERY time there is any activity in my
mailbox.

'Please Type User Name & Password' It doesn't matter whether you cancel, ok
or X out of it the next time something happens up it pops again. Can someone
please tell me how I can stop this process from happening. Thank You

Maybe you need to tell us some RELEVANT information - like Outlook version,
Windows version and service pack level if applicable.
There are now FIVE versions of Outlook and at least SIX versions of Windows
that Outlook will run on.

Outlook version?
E-mail account type (POP, IMAP, HTTP/Deltasync, Exchange)?
E-mail provider?
If Hotmail, are you using the Outlook Connector?
Type of network connection (dial-up or LAN)?


--- Posting Hints ---

ALWAYS REVIEW your message before submitting it. You want someone OTHER
than yourself to understand your post. Also remember that no one here is
looking over your shoulder to see at what you are pointing. If you don't
well explain your situation by providing the DETAILS that you already know,
don't expect others to know what is your situation. Explain YOUR computing
environment and just what actions you take to reproduce the problem.

Often you get just one chance per potential respondent to elicit a reply
from them. If they skip your post because you gave them nothing to go on
(no details, no versions, no OS, no context) then they will usually move on
to the next post and never return to yours.

What is Usenet:

When using a webnews-for-dummies interface (e.g., Microsoft's Communities,
Google Groups, or a leech site using a forum-to-Usenet proxy), those are
gateways to Usenet. Despite the pretense of a forum, you are participating
in a newsgroup (aka Usenet).

Regarding error or status messages:
- Do NOT omit the message.
- Do NOT describe the message.
- Do NOT summarize the message.
- Do NOT paraphrase the message.
- Do NOT truncate the message.
- Do show the ENTIRE message (but munge or star out personal info,
like your username in an e-mail address but not the domain).
And DETAIL the steps to reproduce the error or problem.
