Outlook express takes a long time to start up

Jun 26th, 2004

Hello,
Can someone shed some light on this? I just upgraded my version of "MSN Messenger" on my Win XP Pro pc. Now Outlook Exprees takes almost 1 minute to startup. Does any one have any ideas short of uninstalling msn messenger and reinstalling it?

cheers
mike

I had this problem after installing 2800 fonts on my computer.

After I cancelled the fonts, everything come back to normal : outlook started again in less 1 second.
