These are worth investigating. It sounds like there's corruption of data in outlook Express. If it isn't a virus or trojan, then I'm afraid it could be that a hard drive is beginning to fail. back up all your data (if you can).

Hi Eleanor,
My pennys worth:
Keyboard for laptop has a faulty usb cable. Any short in this will instantly 
kill the power supply.
Perhaps a virus or Trojan is at work in your desktop. When windows hits a 
problem it tends to reboot.
Regards
Aedan.

I have a desk top computer.  A new fault over the past 3 days, it will
suddenly and for no apparent reason turn itself off!!! At first it was happening on Internet and e-mail but tonight it started when I was reading a 
long word document.  Any ideas on this one please?
The second problem relates to a lap top. It's problem is that if I plug in a USB keyboard this triggers the lap top to turn off. It is not possible to 
power on again for nearly 24 hours!!!!

Now where on earth am I getting these gremlins?
