[Leica] Question About WinXP and Outlook Express

[jhnichols at lighttube.net (Jim Nichols)]

My faithful old Dell desktop runs Windows XP Version 2002 Service Pack 3, 
and I use Outlook Express as my primary mail program.  It has been in this 
configuration since the machine was new.

For the last few days, when I turn on the computer and use the desktop icons 
to start Outlook Express and Firefox, the Outlook Express block in the 
Taskbar comes up ORANGE.  If I click on the block, to display the OE window, 
it turns back to the normal blue color.  Everything else about the operation 
seems to be the same as it has always been.

Has anyone else experienced this?  Have you found an explanation?

It just seems strange for the old software to change after all these years.
