Hi all,
For some reason, in the last several weeks, when I am trying to open an
appointment sent by another outlook user (also XP/2007), my outlook freezes
and is
non-responsive and I have to close outlook and reopen (computer is using
100% CPU). I cannot view these appointments (to accept/reject or even delete)
- they remain in my inbox and if I try to open (or view in the reading pane),
outlook stops running.
Is this a bug or is there a way to fix it? How can I delete them without
choosing them since once I place my cursor on the message, it freezes and I
can’t delete it.
trying scanpst and problem still remain.

Outlook version : 12.0.6300.5000 MSO(12.0.4518.1014)
using POP3

Please help - it’s becoming very difficult to use outlook.

I found the way! I had the same problem and finally came up with a solution.

Create a rule!

I created a rule, all messages with "_________ in the subject" (fill in a
unique and exact string of words), then select "permanently delete," and then
run on all messages in the folder they're located in.

After hours of frustration, Voila - they just disappeared.

Good luck and I hope it works for all the other frustrated Outlook users who
can't view or delete corrupt of calendar items without Outlook freezing.

Outlook, Calendar, Corrupt, Delete, Freezes - hoping that it will help others
