Can't remove other user's folder

Using Outlook 98...

I have got another users mailbox in my folder list, but it's not in the list
of other users mailboxes to open at startup.

It has appeared in my list for an unknown reason, and I cannot delete the
folder.

When I click on the folder (+ Mailbox - username) I am told I do not have
permission to access this folder. But the program will not let me do anything
at all with it.

Any ideas?
 
I have sorted this out now!
I closed Outlook first of all.
I went into the registry and went into the following folder:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows Messaging
Subystem\Profiles\Default Exchange Profile

From here I went down through the different subfolders and found that one of
them contained the same name as the offending mailbox. I deleted this folder.

When I restarted Outlook, it had disappeared. I have double-checked and this
registry edit hasn't affected anything else.
