Office Outlook 2003 trouble

[Guest]

Hello, I am so tech savvy so I would appreciate guidance!

I am running Microsoft Home office 2003 on my Dell Dimension 4700. My
computer is set to receive automatic updates, & until about a month ago,
everything has been running smoothly.

I am only having trouble with Office Outlook. When I open the program, it
now takes a long time to open, as well as download & open new messages, &
when I'm typing in a new message, the typing doesn't appear on the screen
until many seconds after I finish typing.

I have tried to "clean up" & remove old files & messages in the mailbox. I
have a cable high speed connection, & made no changes to my internet options,
so I don't understand why this program is so sluggish. Any thoughts?

Thanks -

andy

Any thoughts?

Then with OL closed, scanpst.exe the data file repair tool (The default
named data file is outlook.pst)

If still no good post to an OL specific ng
