Oulook 2007/2003 with Outlook Connector Never Closes properly ..

[Barath]

hi all,

I use Office Windows XP/Outlook 2003 in my work place and Windows
Vista/Office 2007 at my home and I use outlook connector at both place to get
my hotmail mails. I have put my outlook in startup of windows so that it
automatically stats and when i shutdown the system it closes by itself.

Until I use Outlook connector, the startup and shutdown had no problems at
all. But once i started using outlook connector,

1. In XP PC outlook 2003 does not close the program automatically. ie., when
i press shutdown, it says outlook not responding do you wsh to end the prog
with options "End Now" and "cancel". So what i usually do is close outlook
first before shutdown. Before using outlook connector i did not have this
problem.

2. In Vista PC with Outlook 2007, It closes the program without warning /
asking to close the program deliberately but when i restart the machine,
Outlook always checks for problems with data files and says outlook was not
closed properly the previous time. I also did not have all these problems
before using outlook connector.

So how to get rid of this problem. If this is a problem that is known, whill
ther be a fix ?

thanks.
