Strange behavior

[BDavis]

My Outlook has been doing some stange things as of late.
Namely, it randomly shuts itself down. The program just
vanishes and I have to re-start it. This doesn't seemed
to be linked with any single type of event.

Secondly, I get a lot of system administrater message
saying "Undeliverable" message. This is strange fo a
number of resons: the subject is always somethng
like "Hi" or "Hello there" and the recipient is always
some variation of my own name (BenDavis1709) or something
like that.

I've performed a total system scan using Norton which
turned up nothing so I'm at a loss.

Spammers and viruses usually spoof the sender. If your address was spoofed
to send mail, you get the bounce message. Delete it.

I seem to have similar problem. Outlook shuts down erratically and
intermittantly. Sometimes after a few seconds; sometimes after 5 or 10
minutes.

Outlook pops a message that says there has been a problem and Outlook needs
to close do you want to send an error report.

I have installed the upates recommended from "we can fix the problem "
messages until I stop getting we can fix the problem message. I have used
detect and repair. Just wonder if anyone has got a suggestion
