Outlook Express Opens Slow

[Talyn]

Last week I downloaded the most recent updates for XP
Home. Ever since then Outlook Express takes 30+ seconds to
open. It never took more than 2-3 secs before that. Anyone
else have this problem?

Thanks for the tip. Instead of changing the registry I
just closed the contacts pane - never use it anyway. Now
it opens in the blink of an eye.
