The other day, My computer (Running XP-Home) restarted itself and when It
came back up, all my added folders and contacts disappeared from O.E. !! It
is like I am starting with a new install of O.E. 6. Anybody know where the
folders and contacts went and how I can get them back??

As far as I'm aware OE doesnt use Contacts, but an address book
