Hi, I have solved my problem, but thought I would share with you all.

MS Outlook 2007 on XP. Hanging on load. Kill the process and could start in safe mode. Tried all the standards, disabled all add-ins. Fix the .pst files with scanpst. Removed anti-viris software.Repair using installation disk. Uninstall and re-install. All to no effect. Even decided to try XP SP3.

By accident, discovered that Windowssearch.e was hanging, so disabled Windows Search from start up.

Outlook problem resolved. Hope this saves someone some time.
(no idea what the problem with Windows Search is)

Best regards
