You mention Outlook here by OE in the title, so I don't know if this will apply to both. I've seen this issue in Outlook, to resolve it go into options and disable the instant messaging integration. I remember a work machine had this configuration and Outlook took forever to start, read messages. On each message Outlook was hitting Messenger (I think to see if the user was online), and that made just scrolling thru the messages very very slow.
