files in OLK folder not being deleted

[Lester Bennett]

I having problems with Outlook 2003 not displaying graphics embeded within
an email.
I've deleted all files in the OLK folder and it works for a few days then I
have to delete the files again.
I've also tried deleting the folder completely and still the problem returns
after a few days use.
I thought these were temporary files that should be deleted automatically
after the email or Outlook is closed. Why are they not being deleted?
I've applied the latest Office patches etc.

Hope someone has an answer to the problem.

Regards,
Lester Bennett

The temporary files in that folder are supposed to be deleted automatically,
but it can happen that it doesn't happen. Perhaps something is keeping
Outlook open so that the portion of Outlook that performs the deletion
doesn't get executed. Personally, I think a tool like
http://www.howto-outlook.com/products/outlooktools.htm helps a lot in these
cases.
