Outlook Express 6

[Cathy Wing]

On April 16, I downloaded Window update. I run Windows 98. I was running
Outlook Express 5. I updated at the time of the Windows update to OE6. Now
when I go to OE I can't open, send any e-mail or open my address book. An
error message comes up that says Msimn This program has performed an
illegal operation....and it closes OE. How do I fix this?

This newsgroup is for support of Outlook
97/98/2000/2002/2003 from the Office suite of products. Outlook
Express is actually a separate program despite the similar name.

For help with your OE questions, try an OE newsgroup such as
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6_outlookexpress (for OE 6), or
an OE help website such as http://insideOE.tomsterdam.com. If you're
accessing the Microsoft newsgroups through the MS Product Support
Services "Community Newsgroups" web interface, click
http://communities.microsoft.com/newsgroups/default.asp?icp=InternetExplorer
to get to the Internet Explorer groups, then click the plus sign next to
your version of IE to see the link to the Outlook Express group for that
version number. Good luck!
