My Outlook express has been hanging up and not responding, don't have a clue why?? Anyone got any ideas. Usually works great, now it just won't open.

Sounds like your mail folder(s) is(are) corrupted!
First search in your hard disk for all files which has the extension .dbx and then repair with scanpst tool from MS. Do a search on Google to find the scanpst tool to download.
Good luck. GWorld

Hi: Look for the following files and replace them from the CD: Pstores.exe and the associated .dll files. Rename the old files prior to replacing them with the replacement files. Good luck

I have been working the past few days and will try this ASAP. I have had this problem before and it just went away. I found that around the same time avg had detected some trojans. It healed 3 of them and vaulted the other one. I deleted these and have run all my spyware, however, my cwschredder file couldn't be found, I think maybe it was downloaded to a temp internet file. Will let you know how it works out. Any comments welcome. Thanks
Thanks Brtblueyes
