Hi mogan david;
Just a guess here. Trojans.
Are you using an updated antivirus program?
Are you current on Windows updates?
Have you tried any free Trojan scans?

Thanks RandyL - Yes I have current anti virus by Norton, but have not tried any free trojan scans. Will select one from the net and see what it shows.

Thanks RandyL - Believe my original post may have been a bit confusing. Here's what happens. Open adress book, names appear alphabetically - scroll down to the letter "M" - now, names start appearing again like this Mail:Joe Adams, Mail: Jane Baker, MAil, Sue Carter, etc. All of thes names are legitimate names for my address book, but are duplicated beginning with the letter M. I did not enter names and addresses in this manner, and each one starting with the word Mail is a duplicate.
Do I make myself clear?
