Can't forward/send emails and log on keeps popping up

McAfee antivirus is among the top three troublemakers for Windows Mail.
Even disabling its email scanning is often not sufficient.
The only way you can prove or disprove that McAfee is the culprit is to
uninstall it, followed by using their debris removal tool:
http://service.mcafee.com/FAQDocument.aspx?id=107083&lc=1033

If you decide to replace McAfee, we can recommend a free antivirus
program which is more compatible with Windows Mail:

Instead of switching to a different antivirus, another option is to upgrade
to Windows Live Mail (WLM), which is more resistant to the adverse effects
of aggressive antivirus products: http://get.live.com/wlmail/overview

Even with WLM, you must disable email scanning in the antivirus,

Okay....so I removed McAfee and tried to forward one of my emails, and I got
the same error message as above. So that can't be it. I am now going to
install AVG anti-virus and keep spybot (unless you recommend otherwise). In
the meantime I will look into WML but I am not able to pay for an upgrade
just to forward my emails back to my yahoo account.

Now I also downloaded the windows live mail....and I STILL can't forward.
So, in summary - I uninstalled the McAfee, (still wasn't able to forward/send
emails), installed AVG 8.0, left spy bot, and downloaded Windows Live
Mail....and still no luck. Now what?

Let's back up. Is your Yahoo account a free one, or do you pay for
their premium 'Mail Plus' service?

After you uninstalled McAfee, did you follow up with their removal tool?

Did you try Windows Mail while no antivirus was installed?

Did you use the custom install procedure for AVG?

Hummmm...I sent two replies, but now I don't see them and felt like we were
in mid conversation. Let me try again.
My Yahoo account is paid...the Mail Plus service

After I uninstalled Mcfee I ran the "clean up tool" you sent me on the link

I tried to forward my mail after took all the anti-virus programs from my
computer (but spy bot was/is still on) and still no luck.

I custom installed AVG and disabled the scan email component

I also upgraded to Windows Live Mail....and STILL no luck!
