MSIMN.EXE caused invalid page fault

This is a bit of an odd one for me. I reloaded my PC with Windows 98 (scratch reload). Since then, whenever I fire up Outlook Express", I keep getting the message "MSIMN.EXE caused invalid page fault in module WAB32.DLL". Now I know that MSIMN.exe is the Outlook Express program, and I know that WAB32.DLL is the Windows Address Book, but as to why the BL***Y thing keeps giving this invalid page fault, I don't know.
Can anybody please save my sanity and help?

Message: msimn caused an invalid page fault in module kernel32.dll
when attempting to download emails from ISP.
Re-installed OE, unable to solved to far.
Any suggestions pls ?

I had it too, but I solved it.
search for *.wab (where * should be your inlog-code or something) in windows/application data/microsoft/addressbook......rename it to xxx.wab. Than start OE and it works....you only have to do your addressbook again :(
Hope it works!! Greetz

This information at the page below was a simple cure. The symptoms were the same as many of you stated: MSIMN caused an invalid page fault in module MSOE.DLL at memory address. MSIMN caused an Invalid Page Fault in module kernel32.dll
