I am using Outlook 2003 on WinXP Pro. I believe some MS updates were done
last night. Now when I try to select a file to attach by clicking on the
down arrow in the directory listing to get to the file, Outlook hangs up and
I when I close, it quits and sends an error message. Any others out there?

Follow-up: I am able to go to different folders via the favorites and places
locations to the side of the selection screen. I can then select my file and
attach it. Only when I select the down arrow at the top, showing the default
folder of "My Documents" does my system hang. I do not have huge numbers of
files or folders to pull up.

Do you have any network drives that are currently disconnected?
