Hi Folks
The above is not closing properly. I have to alt+ctrl+delete to stop the process. I have disabled all add ins with the exception of my Anti-virus.
I have also used the HihjackThis program and saved a log. Any solutions would be appreciated

Sounds like you might need to run a repair on it .... http://support.microsoft.com/kb/924611 |

Thanks neonwizard I have already looked at that site and carried out the suggestions without much luck.

I don't know what you can do without a complete reinstall of Outlook ....
I have had a few people I have worked on their machines with Outlook problems and eventually went over to Windows Live Mail and haven't looked back.
Live Mail is continually updating and I find it very stable and have 9 email accounts in it with no problem.
You do have to consider as well 2007 is nearly 5 years old now ....

Another thing to look at is make sure you antivirus isn't scanning incoming and outgoing email

My anti virus scans both in and outgoing mail. Should I disable it?
