I keep my Outlook open all day. At lease 6 times a day it hangs up when
"synchronizing folders". I know it is doing this because I see the icon down
in the system tray. It will hang then crash and pop up with a dialog box
asking if I want to send an error report. Once I do this it will restart.
Personally I hate Office 2003 and all the annoying features they have put in
it. How can I solve this problem? Or better yet how can I downgrade to Office
XP from Office 2003?
 
Try starting outlook from the run linein start by typing "outlook /safe" (no
quotes) does the error still occure with no com addins running?
Try using msconfig and clean boot the operating system
