Window Won't Close
 
It's very strange. When I close my Outlook 2000 SR-1, it shuts down and
then, without warning, reopens! It will also happen if I am in some other
program. Outlook will suddenly "take over" and switch me out of the program
I am working on and into Outlook. HELP ! (It happened twice while I was
tyring to post this message for help.)

Some common reasons why Outlook will not shut down completely when you click
either the X or Exit:

1. PDA synchronization software with your PDA in the cradle.
2. WinFax Pro (especially 10.02 in Outlook 2003) - contact their support
for an alleged fix.
3. Franklin-Cover Plan Plus!
4. COM Add-ins.
5. Mail reminder add-ins that keep a stub of Outlook open in the background
to check for new mail and fire reminders.
6. Anti-virus/firewall programs that are set to scan incoming and outgoing
mail.

I would especially suspect a PDA with frequent synching going on.

I don't have a PDA application
I don't use WinFaxPro
I don't have Franklin
I don't think there are any COM add-ins.....if there are, they've been there
for a LONG time and this strange behavior only started in the last 7-10 days
I have no mail add-ins
My virus program is located on our server
