Hi Philippe,
Now that we know you are not using Mail application to access your
dot mac mail.
1. Download the OSX 10.3.9 COMBO Update.
2. Do as Peter H said and disconnect all firewire devices before
running the Combo update.
<http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/macosxcombinedupdate1039.html>
3. After running the combo update, repair permissions.
4. Check Software Update and install any updates.
5. Open Safari and see if you can connect to <http://www.mac.com/
WebObjects/Webmail.woa?aff=consumer&cty=US&lang=en>
Cheers,
Ronni

Hi Keith,
Thanks for that information. Looks like a link somehow to the latest
update!! I have noticed that almost everytime there is an Apple
Security
Update someone encounters a problem.
This reminds me that I did not follow Peter H's advice to turn off all
firewire devices before doing an update. Wonder if that was the
cause? I
have three firewire devices - 2 external drives and a CD/DVD burner.
I hope I do not have to reinstall the OS. In the many years I have
used
Macintosh computers I have never had to reinstall the OS - maybe
pure luck
and maybe this luck is running out? Ouch .....
Kind regards and good luck. I'll post a solution once someone comes
up with
one.

Philippe,
I have no idea if this is related to your problem, but for what
it's worth ...
Since installing Security Update 2006-007, I have been unable to
connect to any web site with 'adobe' anywhere in the address. And
there is one other web site I can not connect to. Otherwise
everything works as normal.
I have tried various browsers and logging in from a different
account. Same result. I can, however, connect if I restart from a
different HD, so I know the modem/router is OK.
Re-installing the standalone 10.4.8 System Update did not help. I
haven't yet tried downloading the Combo update but suspect that will
not work either.
At the moment the only options seem to be a complete System
re-install or waiting to see if a 10.4.9 System update is forthcoming
and that fixes it.
Good luck.
Keith
