Outlook 2003 stops working (freezes) during new calendar item

Outlook 2003 stops working (freezes) during new calendar item entry.

1. My client has Win 2000 PC with 512 MB RAM.
2. When user enters new calendar item - say 10:00 AM next Monday for a meeting, before entry finishes Outlook will not finish entering data.
3. Problem seems worse after installing WinFax Pro 10.02
4. PC has all upgrades for Win 2000, antivirus & antispyware fully deployed, scanned & eradicated with about 4 products (online scans), defragged.

Any ideas how to fix this problem?

Upgrading to Service Pack 1 for Outlook 2003 fixed the problem. Works just fine now. Also made sure client had 512 MB Ram, which also helps.
