I am trying to add a new use to my computer login. I was successful in
adding that through control panel. When I switch to the new user,
everything works except for Outlook Express 6. When I try to open the
Express, it locks up and I have to use ctrl/alt/del to get out. I cannot
get to the point of adding a new email user account. Everything else is
working. Outlook Express works on my account. Help!!!

Is the new user a limited user? If so, try making them and admin and
see if you can start OE. If so, then it's a permissions issue with the
operating system.

Another possibility is your anti-virus. If' it's set to scan e-mail
then it might be having problems with the new user.

The new user is added as an administrator. I can access the internet logged
in as the new user, but not the Outlook Express. Antivirus is turned off
and I ran Adware to see if there were any spies. What next?

You can try the procedures here
OE won't even start
http://www.insideoe.com/problems/errors.htm#crash

Although the web site does not seem to be available currently.
Hopefully the problem is temporary with the website.

Outlook Express will open under my user ID, but will not completely open
under the user that I am trying to create. It will start to open, but then
will lock up.

The procedure is unique to each user id. If some of the OE data files
or registry entries are corrupted, that will stop OE from opening.

It's not usually the shared program files that are the problem.
