It's important to know the Details. When you get an "Illegal Operation"
or "encountered a problem" message, there is usually a Details button
(In WinME press Alt/D), or a "click here" link to see the error report.
When you click on the button/link, it will give a message like: XXXX
caused an error in YYYY and a bunch of register nonsense or it will list
the Appname XXXX and Modname YYYY. The XXXX and YYYY are important to
identify the cause and solution. You can ignore the rest of the
message.

This just started today; I am used to copying and pasteing from word
documents into Outlook Express 6 messages.

Now OE freezes and terminates the program. The following pops up:

"Outlook Express has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are
sorry
for the inconvenience." then it says to close and asks if you want to
send a
report to Microsoft.

I use Windows XP Home for quites some time now. I did up load IE 7
Beta 2,
but that has been at least a week now and this problem started to day.
