Outlook 2007 was working great, and this last week it started freezing up.
You can open up Outlook, it is stable, open up an email, it shows up in a
new
window, you can see the To: CC: fields etc, but none of the message. The
Office Button is also flashing. At this point Outlook is unusable. Have
to
close it down with Task Manager. Anyone else seeing this option???
