Sorry, but PSR has absolutely nothing to do with ATP .. Problem State Recorder - captures the screens and user action -- I would image that the Microsoft Technicians know that Abomination that is ATP looks like.

Thanks. I had no idea what PSR was or is. I did observe M$ chugging away on my modem at every move in OUTLOOK and now I know what it is called. A nice thing they did was to copy my new subdirectories I created on my Laptop access to mail (my preferred usage) to the on-line direct access. That behavior might have a different program name and I can't worry about that. M$ does what M$ wants!
The Messed up URLs for their security scheme is a pain. When I mail to family or a retiree friend I use Verizon or Yahoo at their direct site to avoid all that junk. At every reply the URL junk multiplies.
Everybody needs to push M$ for an opt-out button.
