"squibs" wrote in message ... I too have received & successfully acted on all this very helpful advice in the past. However I believe I do allow my McAfee Virus Scan to scan e-mails (how can I check that?) & don't quite understand why it is unnecessary. Is it perhaps because my broadband ISP already does that before delivering? "PA Bear" wrote in message ... General OE Caveats: - Don't use Inbox or Sent Items to archive messages. Move them to local folders created for this purpose. - Empty Deleted Items folder daily. - Disable Background Compacting [N/A in SP2] and frequently perform a manual compact of all OE folders while "working offline". More at http://www.insideoe.com/files/maintain.htm. - Do not attempt to close OE via Task Manager or shutdown your machine if Automatic Compacting is taking place (WinXP SP2 only). - Your anti-virus application's email scanning feature can also cause corruption. Disable it. It provides no additional protection. Also try deleting Temporary Internet Files, accepting the option to delete all offline content. -- ~Robear Dyer (PA Bear) MS MVP-Windows (IE/OE, Security, Shell/User) Deacon Bernie wrote: For about two months, Outlook Express is taking a very long time to load (45 to 60 seconds). I run XP Pro with SP-2. I've used every anti-virus program I have (only one running) and anti-spyware. I've checked the registry countless time and I regularly run Windows Cleaner as well as Defragmenter. Does anybody have any suggestions I might try? |
