Outlook Express takes forever to load

D

Running Windows XP (Home Ed.). Outlook Express takes up
to 1 minute to load (the dreaded hourglass) and the same
amount of time to retrieve new messages. Funny thing is
that on the same computer, on another user's desktop, OE
loads normally. My wife gets her e-mail fast on her
desktop but mine is slow. Options
under "Accounts", "Properties" are set exactly the same
for both accounts. Any ideas?

Try disabling the preview pane and msn messenger.... If you have a lot of
folders or email, the files might be too large or damaged for a fast load of
OE
