It's not an Outlook Express issue.

NTUSER.DAT 6.4MB - What's this about?
That holds info on your user profile. I gets larger as you add software.
Don't touch it until you ask someone more experienced with it, preferably in an XP newsgroup.

Please learn to Cross-Post to pertinent, On Topic News Groups instead. This subject matter is NOT On Topic here. Oh, wait... AOL user.
