When it's compacting, it's impossible to do anything else with the computer
! -- it seems to take all of the processor up.

Also after it's done the entire pc works at a snail's pace until I reboot.
It seems to do more harm than good. What's the point of it?

How large are your .DBX files? Note that .DBX files are hidden in XP and
Windows 2000. None should be larger than 100MB and you should NOT store
messages in your Inbox, Sent Items, Drafts or Deleted Items. Create
folders under Local Folders for archiving.

Also, do you have some kind of anti virus checking email or an anti spam
program hooked up to Outlook Express?
