I am having major problems with Outlook XP on a Go-Slow! Every time
move to another message in my inbox Outlook sends a request to m
Exchange Server. It can take up to 10 minutes to block delete a handfu
of messages too.

This happened shortly after receiving a message with what I assume wa
an infected document, and which was not opened. As a precaution I hav
run virus & trojan removal tools but nothing is ever found.

Yesterday I backed up my PST, removed my mail account from the server
created a new account and re-imported my PST. All ran fine for half a
hour then it went back to this same problem.

I am also running InBoxer 1.1 - but I run this at several other site
with no problems at all.

Anyone with a suggestion?

Couple of things to try/check.
Uncheck Messenger integration Tools > Options > Other.
Start Outlook from the Run line using this command outlook /cleanviews, to
do this go to Start > Run > type "outlook /cleanviews" without the quotes
but with the space before the forward slash. Warning running this switch
will wipe out all view customisation.
If the above don't help I would with Outlook closed rename a file called
outcmd.dat, if this doesn't work close Outlook and rename the file back to
original.
