Outlook XP frequently crashes under Windows XP

I cannot say much more to describe the problem. I have done the following. I have uninstalled Office XP, reinstalled Office XP, and activated Office XP. I had used the "Detect and Repair" option several times with no apparent benefit. I have run the repair option from the CD. Office XP continues to crash frequently.

One of the signs to me that Office XP is about to crash is the application becomes very slow in accessing an e-mail or contact.

Office XP will crash when the only applications loaded are Internet Explorer version 6.0, WordPerfect 10.0, Norton Internet Security 2002, Norton Antivirus 2002 and Windows Messenger. The application will crash sometimes until I have to do a hard reboot. I use Contacts, Notes, e-mail, Calendar and the To-Do list.

I would deeply appreciate any suggestions. I've contacted Gateway Technical Support and they had no suggestions.

I think I may have the problem solved, at least on my computer!
I did a complete unistall of Winfax pro (including cleaning the registry) last week and have not had a single problem with Outlook frezing since.
