I recently updated my WIN 98 SE with KB912812 and KB911562 security updates
and now my Outlook Express hangs upon opening. When I go to ctrl -
alt -
del, I see that MSIMN is not responding.

Any Ideas as to the solution for this? I have four seperate Identities
in
this version of OE and I would like to not lose every thing in the
program.
Thanks for your help. Jeff
