outlook express

[Kathy]

Help! When I click to open Outlook Express, I get a
message "Cannot delete ntuser.dat. Being used by another
person or program." Of course, I have no intention of
deleting this file nor do I have any idea what it is -
but it is irritating coming up each time and I'm afraid
it might signal some larger issue. Any ideas?

this newsgroup is for support of Outlook
97/98/2000/2002/2003(beta) 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!
