Outlook 2003 High CPU Usage

[Lee]

We use exchange 2003 and outlook 2003 in our office, and have for a couple of
years now. Recently one of the outlook clients began using excessing cpu
cycles and in turn the application is responding slowly. How do I go about
trying to figure out what is going on here? I have scanned for viruses etc.
using McAffee but nothing has surfaced.

Start with disabling the addins and running Outlook in Safe Mode to
determine what is causing the CPU spikes.
