*Did* this start immediately after loading SP3? Please answer and try this
next.

See if the problem persists in a new named identity.

You may have a damaged identity especially if it is the default Main
Identity. File | Identity | Add New Identity. Create a new one and test it.
If all is well, you can import your messages and Address Book from the old
identity and delete it.

Thanks. I did that. The first pop-up box said "Dll...succeeded".

However, the second box said: "Loadlibrary("P") failed. The Specified
module could not be found"

The file inetcomm.dll IS on my PC.

Go to Start | Run and type, or copy/paste:

regsvr32 inetcomm.dll P

Press "Enter"

I have two machines that were running XP SP2. I downloaded and installed
SP3 to both.

One PC is still ok. The other has corrupted Outlook Express.

The preview pane is visible but there are no contents. I know the
dangers of having preview on, so please don't tell me that I should
manage without preview!

Any help appreciated.
