outlook 2003: strange

R

richard j. boris

i just reverted to office 2002 because I have had the following problem with
the new office, specifically outlook 2003.

(i did keep a ghost mirror, if someone figures it out.)

when outlook opens it puts its new "orange" icon on the task manager.

when outlook closes the icon remains and the send/receive function
continues.

how can i get it (and send/receive) to go away when I close outlook 2003?

thanks in advance.

Richard Boris.

are you using any addins, including active sync or stamps.com? anything that
accesses outlook's data will cause it to remain open.
