Outlook not responding

[LOKSTER]

Several months ago I was running Outlook 2002 and I began to have
problems. Outlook would hang up and I would have to reboot. It
seemed to get worse and worse.

I upgraded to 2003 and the problem occurred again??

I Reformatted my hard drive, loaded everything again and it worked
fine - for a while - a few days - then the entire problem started
again. It seems to be related to attachments. If I try to look at an
email with an attachment Outlook hangs and when I attempt to shut it
down I get a Not Responding message. These BTW are any attachments -
even those that I have opened before.

As before - the problem seems to be getting worse & worse.

My PST is not large - I started all over again(although I did import
my address book). I run the same PST on another computer without a
problem so there doesn't seem to be a problem with that.

I just updated the latest Office update - no help.

Again - I am running the same software on a different computer - I
took this all the war down to a reformatted hard drive and reloaded
everything ??

Sometimes I can shut the computer down and the problem goes away for a
while - mow even that only works occasionslly.

I see no other problems withany other programs.

i run XP PRO and use Norton Antivirus. I got inundated with
SWENviruses - which the virus program picked up - if that may be
relavent.

Any suggestions?

Hi:
I've been having the same problem with my Outlook 2000.
Have you received any help on this? I am at wits end.
Thanks,
Lori
