My outlook is giving me a message that I am using an old .ost file and I must
exit outllok and delete this file. I am unable to update my outllok folder
until this is done. Can anyone help?

Rename it to .old and restart Outlook. By default you can find it here;
C:\Documents and Settings\%username%\Local Settings\Application
Data\Microsoft\Outlook
