Hi Joe,
RE: "the program error.."
See if the following Microsoft Knowledge Base Article helps:
KB258034 - OLEXP: Error Message: Msimn.exe Has Generated Errors and Will Be Closed by
Windows
http://support.microsoft.com/?scid=258034
RE: "I can't even find the log to read it."
By default the Drwtsn32.log file is located in the following folder. For more
information, search Windows 2000 Help for "application error log"
and/or see Dr. Watson Help (drwtsn32.chm).
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\DrWatson
You may also find the following Web Site helpful. It is authored by Tom Koch,

March 2003 top 100 web sites.

Also, there are a lot of Outlook Express newsgroups. You may want to post to one of
those. Your message header seems to indicate that you are posting from the Microsoft
Communities Web Page. I am not certain what version of Outlook Express you are
running, though, so I can't provide a direct link.
Below you will find a link to the main Microsoft Communities Internet
Explorer/Outlook Express Newsgroups Web Page. Start there, then in left-side pane
click on the link for your version of Internet Explorer, then click on the Outlook
Express link.
Microsoft Communities Internet Explorer Newsgroups
http://communities.microsoft.com/newsgroups/default.asp?icp=InternetExplorer
BTW, if you post in the Outlook Express newsgroup, please include details such as:
- Operating System and Service Pack level
- Internet Explorer/Outlook Express Version
- Any changes made between the time Outlook Express worked, and now
- Any relevant messages from the drwtsn32.log file, or found in Event Viewer
(eventvwr.msc)
