I deleted profile that was there and created a new one. Test mail was OK.
When I started Outlook 2007 it offered me safe mode. I clicked NO and it
loaded OK. However, after I rebooted and started Outlook 2007, it froze at
the welcoming screen. No error message this time.

Try with anew profile created via the Mail icon in Control Panel.

When I tried to run Outlook 2007 for the first time it froze with
"Configuring Outlook Accounts" and "Creating Outlook Data File" messages.
Since nothing was happening I closed it out through Task Manager. When I
tried it the second time it advised that Outlook 2007 did not close
correctly and offered Safe Mode. I did work in Safe Mode. I restarted the
computer and when I start Outlook 2007 it freezes with the same error
messages but it works in the Safe Mode after I close it through Task
Manager. I have Vista Home Premium and Office Profesional 2007. I use
Windows Mail but wanted to experiment with Outlook and have a problem
now.
