Problems with Outlook Express

I am having a problem with Outlook Express closing as soon as it opens up.

About 3 weeks ago I deleted Microsoft Outlook from my computer (not Outlook Express). After I deleted it I found that I could not check my e-mail from within Internet Explorer. I could not assign Outlook Express as my e-mail program (Tools - Options - Programs - E-Mail). Outlook Express was not an option. I could still use the desktop icon to check my e-mail.

Now I can't check my e-mail at all. When I open Outlook Express it starts up like it used to do, but when the program opens completely it immediately shuts down and does not check my e-mail. This happened all of a sudden and without warning.

I thought it might be a virus, but I've run AVG virus scan and Norton Anti-Virus without a virus being detected. Virus pattern files are up to date.

Does anyone have a suggestion as to what I can do?
 
I tried to repair Outlook Express using the link that you provided. I'm still having the same problem. Outlook Express start up, I see the inbox screen for a split second and the program closes.

Do you have any other suggestions? I already reinstalled Windows XP and that didn't help either.
 
I corrected the problem with Outlook Express. I right clicked on the Outlook Express icon and selected the "run as" option. I put in my user name and password and the program ran fine. It now works without a problem.
 
GET OPERA 6.02 it is the best out there.

Even the free version makes ie look like a drunk pig, lolol.....

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(
