MICROSOFT EXCHANGE SYSTEM TRAY RESET OUTLOOK PASSWORD POP-UP WARNINGS

Anonymous

over past several days I have received 5 MICROSOFT EXCHANGE OUTLOOK SYSTEM TRAY POP-UPS for each of my 5 exchange accounts, one by one, and then it starts all over again

warning me to renew my Microsoft Exchange password

which expires in "315334799" days (number which decreases by 1 each day)

the pop-up ends with a CLICK HERE TO RESET PASSWORD (which I have not clicked)

I have cleaned up my pc with Norton, CC Cleaner and Spybot, followed by rescue sessions with Microsoft and Norton.

So far, no solution.

Even new profile with just 1 exchange account brings up reset warning.

GoDaddy says there is no reason on earth to reset my passwords (which I have not yet tested)

Apparently problem is not a virus, but I would like it to stop.

The only thing which works thus far is to turn off SHOW MS EXCHANGES MESSAGES in system tray, but this is only a temp band-aid.

Ideas? Thanks!

Jonathan

    No luck. Have you talked to Godaddy yet? If so, try sending them the link to this thread. Maybe they will see and emerging issue that will motivate them to look into it more deeply on their end...?

    No I have not contacted GoDaddy yet but I intend to. If they will allow me to send them the link to this thread I definitely will. This is what my popups look like on every computer. I will update after I speak to them...

    If you look earlier in this thread, you will see what mine look like.

    Let me know what happens with Go Daddy

    Well GoDaddy is useless, I got the same run around. They said it's not a notification from GoDaddy but from Outlook itself. They said that there are no issues on their end and that the passwords will never expire. They said that I should turn off the notifications if I don't want to receive them. They said if I turn them off and still receive them then it's an issue with my machine. (regardless of the fact that it's an issue with 3 different machines) Ugh!

    Thanks for the update. Yes it is frustrating. All we can do is keep Googling for new results. It seems like this is a new and expanding issue. We may find other information on other sites and other threads. Maybe even Solutions.

    I'll keep looking you guys do too and let's Let each other know what we find out here.
