Default Localhost keeps coming up

At random times my outlook 2003 email settings will
change themselves. The incoming server will change to
localhost, while the username changes
to 'username'\mail.medicompal.com ( our mail server ). If
I correct the settings and everything works fine for a
while (maybe days maybe only minutes) and the settings
will change to the
localhost, 'username'\mail.medicompal.com settings again.
It is happening on several of our office machines.
What is up with this?
How do I stop it?
We are running PC-cillin 2002 with firewall but no proxy.

This is caused by your virusscanner. See he documentation of your
virusscanner how you can disable that integration.

You are right.
MS documents this in a knowledge base article. I guess my
POP3 provider is not compatible with this method of
scanning(according to MS).
Thanks for the reply.
