Outlook never exits.

[Marcos]

Well I have outlook 2000 in a corporate environment. The
issue I have is that when I close Outlook 2000 it never
closes. I have to Ctrl+Alt+Del to shut it down. All the
other PC in the network close Outlook as soon as tell it
to close and log off. We have been running Outlook 2000
since it came out I have never encountered this issue
before. Can someone please help me with it?

Thanks,
Marcos
P.S. I have uninstalled outlook and reinstalled it and
also rebuild the workstation from scratch and the issue
still persists.

Use the following steps to use a command-line switch:
1.. Click Start, and then click Run.
2.. In the Open box, type the complete path noted in step 3, including the
file name. Press the SPACEBAR once, and then type the forward slash (/)
followed by the command-line switch.
For example, if you want to use the /ResetFolders switch, the command-line
should read as follows:
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office10\Outlook.exe." /ResetFolders

Hope this helps.
