Why does my letter disappear as soon as I type "Dear Sir," in Word? Well, for the record, it shouldn't. Since it is, I would start by looking the various options in Tools, Auto Correct Options..., and perhaps most specifically the Auto Text entries.
Can Outlook Express and Outlook be used to read email on the same account? Certainly. You'll probably want to configure one (or perhaps both) to "leave messages on server" instead of deleting them, but there's no real reason this couldn't work.
What's the best way to repair a broken Internet Explorer install? Really, the best way, is simply to download the latest internet explorer and reinstall on top of your broken installation.
How can you sign onto two accounts at once on the same computer? Well, in Windows XP Home and Pro you can't. Under Windows 2000 and 2003 Server, you can use Remote Desktop, either from another computer, or even from the same computer, to create another session and log in with a different account.
