MSIMN has a habbit of doing that. First, try deleting all the *.tmp and ~*.* files off your hard drive (close all your programs first). Run a scandisk and restart. See what happens. Perhaps that folder is somehow corrupt. If the program runs okay, leave it alone for a little while-i.e., don't open that folder. When and if you're convinced that Outlook is running okay, then try the folder. If it messes it up, I'd trash it, delete temps again, scan again, and restart.<br><br>There's not lots of troubleshooting in OE... <p> <br><a href=mailto: dreamboat@nni.com> dreamboat@nni.com</a><br><a href=

like I said in the first post, it did that with the folder(which I deleted and recreated now it doesnt do it with the folder) but it still crashes no matter where I am if I just wait a min with it opened <p>Karl<br><a href=mailto:kb244@kb244.8m.com>kb244@kb244.8m.com</a><br><a href=
