We had a power outage this am. The Domain and E2K server went down and came backup. (please don't talk to me about UPS's !!) However my own PC fell over of course and since all coming back up, the connection to the Exchange server from Outlook 2K is very slow, taking over a minute to connect. Another w/s takes seconds to connect. I am unable to run Detect and Repair as MS Installer is incorrect for some reason. Has anyone any idea's that I can try ? Simon Bound
