    Tools / Options

    then Advanced on the Left, scroll down to Security.

    It should be on by default :confused:

    But you can get it for macs as well as I have downloaded the version for OSX and followed instructions to install but had no success.
    Thanks anyway

    Hi Claire, if you're still following this thread, can you tell me the name of the file you downloaded?

    Thunderbird ( the email prog ) is GREAT too !

    much better than Outlook Express.

    Well I tried it and liked it but there does not seem to be a way to have multiple identities like there is is LookOut Excuse.
    Does anyone know a way to achieve the same thing?

    Just set up multiple accounts in Tools -> Account Settings. You can have a separate inbox for each account (click on Server settings for the account, then Advanced to find the options), and also set up alternative 'from' addresses for each account too.

    It's more flexible than OE's multiple identities once you've got your head round how it works!

    Hope this helps

    A few things to try...

    Can you access other secure sites?

    Try using the secure URL for gmail - https://gmail.google.com

    Try disabling any extensions you've installed.

    I like the extension plus I dont know which ones to disable. Your link has the same problem of constantly refreshing the link but never actually arriving at the page
