Outlook causes HDD to continuously work

[Knot2Brite]

s is new behavior.

When I have a checkmark to run automatic send and receive every 10 minutes,
my hard drive, for want of a better word, continuously grinds. By that I mean
it runs continuously and sounds like it is cycling between reading and
writing. Also, in task manager Outlook grows from about 40 meg to over 200
Meg.

If I do not have a checkmark in that box neither of these events happen.

In the case where I do have a checkmark while I am attempting to close
Outlook using taskmaster a dialog box appears to tell me Outlook has had a
problem and must close.

I am at a loss as to where to begin so your help will be appreciated.

And the version is?
You've tried the simple Detect/Repair within OL?
You've uninstalled any AV intergration with OL?
You've tried running OL with the safe switch?

Wonderful, thank you.

I will try each technique in term.

I use 2003. I don't know what AV integration means so I can't be proceed
immediately.

Again, thank you

It must be great to be smart. Thank you DL. I ran Detect/Repair and the
problem stopped, hopefully forever. Probably my all wheel drive was not tuned
to my DVD but since MS doesn't say I'll remain Knot2Brite

AV = anti virus
Using an AV plug in intergrated into outlook can cause problems
