After restoring my computer, I am able to use Outlook to send and receive
emails okay. But Outlook Express seems to be timing out or hanging there
and I can't get the emails. I have Panda virus protection software on the
computer and even tried removing that, but it didn't work. I would prefer
to use Outlook Express instead of Outlook. Anybody know how?

Hi, do you have the same email configured for both Email Clients, both
Outlook and Outlook Express? That could be the problem. Also check your
fire wall settings.. It could be blocking it.. Rainy

I don't know, but you are more likely to get the help you need if you
ask in an Outlook Express newsgroup, than here in a Windows XP one.
Out of curiosity, why do you prefer OE to Outlook?

In internet options under the program tab make sure Outlook Express is your
email program. (Default has to be Outlook Express).

Outlook Express is part of Windows XP, therefore question is very valid at
this newsgroup.

It's not a matter of validity; it's a matter of getting the OP an
accurate and quick answer to his/her question. The Outlook Express
experts spend their time in the Outlook Express newsgroups and possibly
not in windowsxp.basics; the Outlook experts spend their time in the
Outlook newsgroups and possibly not in windowsxp.basics.
Therefore the suggestion is made to the OP that they might find the
answer where they will find the experts. Read through Mr. Blake's post
again and you will see that he is not chasing the OP away from
windowsxp.basics - and neither am I (although I don't know the answer
since neither OE nor Outlook are my areas of expertise) - but only
pointing him/her to another and better resource for help.

Technically, no. Outlook express is part of Internet Explorer......

Correct. However, validity is not the issue, nor did I suggest
otherwise. The issue is where Robert is most likely to get the help he
needs. Outlook Express experts tend to hang out in the Outlook Express
newsgroup, and it's a better place for him to ask his question. He
*may* get the right answer here; he probably will get the right answer
there.
Almost any time you can ask a question in a more specialized
newsgroup, you are better off doing so.

I'm using the same email account in both cases. The guy who reinstalled XP
on my computer appears to have removed or disabled the Windows firewall as
I can't find it. There is a firewall in Panda.

I would be sure to have two different ones, or decide which one you would
rather use.. it can cause a conflict.. I would suggest you get a firewall
off the net.. Sygate in my opinion is great.. now Symantec bought it out and
so now it's not free.. but you can go go www.oldversions.com and get the one
that is free.. I believe it's 5.6 I would not turn the windows firewall
back on. it's about useless! I believe the windows firewall allows traffice
from the net to your computer and stops programs and trojans etc from
accessing the net. You will need a firewall which can stop the traffic
going both ways.. Please let me know if this helped at all.. thanks Rainy
