XP and the security downloads

[aaahelpme]

Can anyone help? Last night I downloaded and installes
some of the updates to protect my computer following the
recent news on Windows XP.
This morning I clicked on Outlook Express to do my e
mails and the whole address book has gone!

What can I do?

Do a search for *.wab on your computer (make sure to search hidden/system
folders as well).

Best to post OE questions here:

microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie5.outlookexpress for OE 5.x
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie55.outlookexpress for OE 5.5x
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6_outlookexpress for OE 6.x
microsoft.public.internet.outlookexpress.mac for OE for Macintosh

If those groups aren't carried on the news server that's carrying this group
try using msnews.microsoft.com (MS's public news server that's the source
for all the microsoft.public newsgroups).

A good website for information on OE is:
