When I open It, I am getting the following message: "Outlook Express could not be started. The application was unable to open the Outlook Express message store. Your computer may be out of memory or your disk is full. Contact Microsoft support for further assistance . OK button." When I press OK button, again I am getting the following message: "Outlook Express could not be started because MSOE.DLL could not be initialised. Outlook Express may not be installed correctly. OK button." If I press OK button, the window is closed. Please provide me necessary guidance. Thanks in advance, Gopalakrishnan Send free SMS to your Friends on Mobile from your Yahoo! Messenger.
