This one's driving me nuts! If I'm in Outlook and want to open a contact
page, or compose a new email, or do ANYTHING other than see my Inbox, I have to manually minimize the the Outlook to get to the second screen, which is "hiding" in the back. This only started happening today! (Lucky me!!). I haven't changed anything, or done anything different, and don't know why it's happening. HELP !

... No, it isn't happening in safe mode ! I don't know what Plaxo is. If you don't know what Plaxo is, then you probably don't have it. If it doesn't happen in safe mode, then it's likely you have some misbehaving add-in causing the problem. Look in the Add-In Manager (ToolsTrust CenterAdd-Ins) and disable all the add-ins. Reenable each one at a time and test again. Eventually you should find the add-in causing the problem. It wouldn't hurt to close and restart Outlook between each trial so that everything loads cleanly each time. That's what I'd do, anyway. -- Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook]

How do you disable the add-ins?
The add-ons listed a Google desktop toolbar Microsoft exchange unified messaging Microsoft Office sharepoint server colleague import Miscrosoft outlook mobile service ShareO (a program that allows our two computers to share the information in Outlook) Timeslips (our office billing program) Windows search email indexer (which is only working on one of the two computers....but that's another story) Xobni (an email search program installed because Windows search email indexer wasn't working!)
