Running Outlook Express 6 with Windows 2000. Frequently
when closed a subsequent attempt to reopen, the following
error message is displayed after 30 seconds or so:"Outlook
Express could not be started because another instance of
it is still running on your computer. .....". The Task
Manager does not reveal the program to be running. When
logging off Windows Outlook is detected running and an End
Task option is given. Rebooting the computer or logging
off windows clears the situation. This did not occur when
previously running 98. How can this be corrected?
