Hi hoping someone can help
I have somehow ended up with OLK 2003 having in the folder list two sets of
personal folders, one on top of the other they are identical, and I am not
sure how this happened? Which one can I delete?
as well on right clicking I am not getting an option to delete
 
You should have an option to Close, not Delete.
If you don't, then you have a corrupt profile. Create a new one.
 
Do you mean a whole new pst?
and then import the old messages ? contacts etc?

No. Not at all. Your PST file is fine. I said create a new Profile and
configure it to use this PST.
Something you did (like trying to migrate data incorrectly) corrupted your
profile, not your PST.

Control Panel->Mail Icon->Show Profiles->New. Do not copy your old profile.

the (insert latest virus name here) virus, all mail sent to my personal
