Failure to start

[Jeff]

I have Outlook 2003. Recently once I close the program it will not open
unless I restart my computer. I have completed several malware, virus, and
microsoft scans and they find nothing. I also downloaded the new junk mail
fix and now outlook is slower (problem occured before junk mail download).
Any ideas on how to fix this? Thanks for the help.

Shutdown issues are generally caused by add-in of applications that you have
installed which rely on the outlook.exe process such as a sync application
for your mobile device.

This is not an issue with shut down, it is an issue with opening after
closing of the program. Sorry if I was not clear.

Same difference. Outlook did not shut down correctly so it can't open.
You need to figure out why its not closing cleanly and fix it, then it
will reopen without problems. See

(http://www.slipstick.com/problems/close.asp) for causes.

Thank you, Thank you and Thank you. Closing through task manager worked. I will monitor that.
