My Outlook 2003 has a few probs, the Inbox and a few other mail folders have
lost their headings and are showing as ????????????? etc. When I get the
right click menu up it won't allow me to rename them. I should mention it's
the Hebrew version but I have the English language pack installed...doesn't
help one bit.

Can someone help???

Try running "outlook.exe /resetfolders". According to Microsoft's KB
article #296192, "Resets the language of the default folders to the
language of the Outlook client."

Start -> Run, browse to the outlook.exe file, select it but don't run it
yet, add the /resetfolders switch to the command line, and then run it.

If you don't know where is the outlook.exe file, just look at the
properties for the shortcut to it in your Start menu.
