Thanks Bruce (and Alias for asking). I had to go into the registry to fix
it.
Cheers, jim

Go to: StartRunRegeditOK and find this key.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Identities\{GUID for
Identity}\Software\Microsoft\Outlook Express\5.0. In the right hand pane
and find *Compact Check Count* and set the value to 0, (zero).

If you are fully patched, the Compact Check Count in the registry should
now be reset to 0 (zero) when you compact manually. Double check at
Windows Updates. If there is nothing available, download the patch at
this link and a manual compact will reset the counter so you don't see
the prompt.

I don't see 918766 listed in Add/Remove. There's nothing new at Windows
Update. What is the registry key again for the count down to see if it's
been downloaded or not?

Thanks,

Alias
