outlook expresss help please

[candyman]

you may all think it has gone quiet from me today

its because

MY E MAIL IS BUST , KAPUT , BROKEN, just plain not working
i cant get in to read any of my e mails

it loads the page partly
none of the tools bar below the bit that says "file " will load and none of the message bits but the bits with the files etc on the left loads ok .
then it just goes to "not resonding "on the top and does nothing at all .
but i can see that it is downloading new e mails because the numbers in the folders are going up

i have tried system restore , to 3 diferent dates and it will not do it .
tried downloading updates , my pc is totaly update so it wont let me

tried to down load patches for O E but it will not accept any that are on the micro soft page

will not take any of them so anyone out there got a magic wand please ?

if not i may just have to resort to my trusty hammer

oh yes i tried sp2 but it said i was totaly up to date so could not do anything there

any help would be greatfully recieved BUT i am real thick on tech stuff

thanks

steve

Can you access your mail via the web through your IP provider?

Someone may have sent you a large attachment and it needs to be removed from the server.

OK, it may not have anything to do with this at all, but my PC just froze completely. I was nowhere near Outlook just on an IE page. I had no toolbars either and I couldn't close the page, had to reboot.
Could it be an IE thing, Steve.

As I mentioned in another thread, there is currently a huge virus attack against Microsoft right now. The safest thing we can do is find alternative programs until fixes are found.

ok all thanks for the advise
my pc repair man came on msn and told me to remove sp2 and then d/l it again

and it worked !!!!!

at the moment i dare not go to any other folder till i have checked all my in box then i will look at the spam folder there could be a biggy in there
