:
in IE there is a checkbox that was click work offline have no idea how it got that way as i use Firefox
perhaps in inadvertently clicking work offline in the email program that set the checkmark in IE only going into IE changes that....In IE,click file on the menu bar and it is in list, just uncheck if checked....Work offline/online menu resides within Tools sub menu in Command Bar (below ie Menu and Bing bar). You can view it via View > Toolbars > Command bar. Make sure Command bar is checked.
