If your OE is Slow Opening Email - how I fixed it
Short version:
I ran sysinternals 'filemon' and saw that a billion fonts were being loaded when I tried to open an email! (I'm a font addict) I used a program to managage fonts and moved almost all but the most necessary fonts out of c:\windows\fonts to a new font dir and VOILA! Almost everything boots MUCH faster. HTH -- You know, Hobbes, some days even my lucky rocketship underpants don't help.

There is a weird bug that occasionally shows. OE sometimes has to load up
all the fonts before starting. Try going to Tools | Options | Read | Fonts and set it to Western as default. If its already set to that, then do it again. See if that fixes it. steve "Hooligan" wrote in message ... Short version: I ran sysinternals 'filemon' and saw that a billion fonts were being loaded when I tried to open an email!

If your OE is Slow Opening Email - how I fixed it
I was so happy to see your message this morning about having one too many
Fonts...... Ha my wife also collects fonts. I have been looking at various forum and working with Microsoft for weeks trying to fix her slow opening of the first email message. I didn't remove her fonts from the windows file (but was ready to) but I read what Steve said about resetting the Western Euopean font default and like you said VIOLA! her mail now opens as it should. Thank you for you for sharing your experience on the subject. Roger
