Whenever I try to read an e-mail with no subject stupid Outlook crashes on me. Any suggestiions? And no, I can't ask everyone who e-mails me to make sure to put something in the subject :(

I'm using Outlook 2000 in WinXP.

I hope it's not a virus! I have McAfee anti-virus running so it should find and stop any virus right?

This is just strange. Ever since I upgraded to WinXP both outlook and outlook express have given me problems.

I guess I will try reinstalling.

Some options to consider:

-Reinstalling it
-Try OE 6
-Try Office XP (with Outlook XP)
-Format you HD and send it to me

:p

Upgrades are evil. Do a clean install.

what? you really think it's a virus? McAfee should've caught it if it's Nimda right? Since I am up to date with all virus definitions.

I don't think it's nimda. it's more than likely a glitch you got from upgrading your 'puter. Just backup your files, format and do a clean install.
