Hi

I'm running Office 2003 on a single XP PC with a P4 processor, 2GB RAM,
200GB free hard space etc using XP Home all fully patched. Until recently,
no problems. Now, Outlook will just decide to lock up and tell me an error
has occurred. It then sends a report to Microsoft, shuts Outlook2003 down
and re-opens it for me.

This has only been happening for a week or so - maybe from when I installed
IE7 and all the other patches?

I keep my Inbox tidy with rarely more than 30 message sin it, and my other
folders are the same. I compact the database usually once a day.

I would be most grateful for any help you can offer please

Thanks,
Dave

Did you uninstall IE7 to see if that helped?

Not yet - I was hoping I wasn't the only one experiencing it.
I don't use IE7 except when checking out my sites in different browsers.

I am having a similar situation on a vista workstation. Of course, there
uninstalling IE7 isn't an option. Did you ever find a resolution?
