Lookout Express is the email equivalent of leaving your front door wide open and putting notices on all the lamp posts in your street telling people that you door is open and nobody is watching it.If you use Windows, then your default email tool will be Outlook Express, unless you've...

Sysinternals do one (they're now part of microsoft) and theres probably loads and loads of others available if you do a little looking around.

If your router modem is next to your PC why not use a wired connection to it? That way your signal strength wouldn't matter. If you still have problems using a wored connection then there maybe a problem with your router modem settings or PC settings.
