Outlook 2007 PST Temp Files

SP2 is installed. Outlook.exe is gone from task manager after closing (Processes Tab). This is weird considering there are other PST's the user has but are not doing the same thing.

After closing OL the temp file for one of the users PST's does not close.
As a result when you open OL again that file becomes unavailable. Any
ideas?. Submitted using http://www.outlookforums.co

Outlook 2007 creates a temp file for each ost/pst in the profile using this
format for the name: "~outlook.ost.tmp". Mine are between 1000 and 3500KB.
