What can cause the OWA not to pull up on the internet? All of my websites in general are fine. My e-mails that are in my Outlook are okay as well. However, I was trying to access one of my e-mails from OWA and I cannot get the page/domain for my OWA to display on the worldwideweb??? Any ideas??

27 was indeed the fix. Works beautifully. MS should have made this the default setting for cached mode.

My Problem is that Outlook.exe NEVER dsapears from the Task manager after teh window is closed. I have left if over he weekend and it is still here (on Visat and Outlook 2007).

Main tips:

1. Indexing service. See here (read the comments):

http://www.itwriting.com/blog/?p=251

If Outlook is still being indexed, that slows things down considerably. Try leaving it on overnight.

2. Mailbox size. Smaller is faster.

3. Add-ins. Disable any Outlook add-ins you don’t need.

My Problem is that Outlook.exe NEVER dsapears from the Task manager after teh window is closed. I have left if over he weekend and it is still here (on Visat and Outlook 2007).

What is even worse for me is that my Outlook 2007 freezes as well. I type an email, and somethings characters stop apearing while I am typeing, and then some 20 of them popup at the same time.

I also get a lot of Outlook not responding, and simmilar messages. It is all on the Intel Dual Core 2 2.16 Ghz, 2 GB ram, etc – high spec machine with the CLEAN vista Ultimate and Office 2007 with all Updates.

Doe it freeze for anyone else while you are typing? Lnike computers did 15 years ago?

Here is the fix:

Go to your Send and Receive options and choose the button that says; “Perform an automatic send and receive upon exiting”.

That’s it

Solved on my system. These was two files names outlook1.pst and outlook.pst in my outlook folder. I moved the older smaller one to another directory. Now outlook 2007 opens without any message. Was in c:\user\name\local\microsoft\outlook\outlook.pst I got the idea after reading response number 10.

> 1) Close Outlook a long time before you shut down your PC (or open task manager and make sure OUTLOOK.EXE is not there before shutting down).

Doesn’t work for me (Outlook 2007 on WinXP). I never shut down my work computer, but have to quit Outlook at the end of the day (5pm) so its PST can be backed up (11pm). Nevertheless, next morning I fire up Outlook and the error comes up again.

This only started happening the last week or so; I’ve had Google Desktop and MS Desktop Search installed for months.
