Well, believe it or not when I did an upgrade to MSN messenger, it set a 
registry key that referred back to the folder in my C drive for Windows 
messenger.  Deleting the key that they mentioned in an earlier email was what 
got OE to start opening normally again.  And I think I know what you're talking 
about....it's the network messager service that is installed in Win XP and even 
that is different from Windows messenger (which has an icon that looks like the 
MSN messenger icon)...messenger service is the program that everyone was having 
such a hard time with...the popups and all...

I am not certain of this... but.... I think again... someone is confusing 
WINDOWS messenger with MSN Messenger.

They are TWO different things.  WINDOWS messenger is the pain in the 
aardvark!  Hard to get rid and keep gone....lol!
This one is tied to IE and OE  (Internet Explorer and Outlook Express) as it 
is a PART of the Windows program when you install it and get upgrades also.

MSN messenger is easy to get rid of and does not come back unless you want 
it to.  It is NOT automatically installed with Windows.  It generally is NOT 
installed on your computer unless the computer company (Dell - Gateway, etc) 
put it there for you to entice you to have MSN as your ISP....

Another thought.... Outlook Express (OE) WILL slow down if you have a lot of 
mail in it.
I am not talking about a hundred pieces of mail.. but a LOT of email.  This 
is especially true if you have large attachments in your emails..such as 
graphics, tubes, programs, etc.

Just my two cents..and that is probably too high a price to pay. ha ha!
