thank you for the reply But i tired with all kinds of antivirus and spam software to clear any of those. But i did find out what was the issue. Since all the spam adds unnessarray buttons in outlook it slows the start up. The file outcmd governs this, so what i did was to delete that file and restart outlook it will ofcourse delete all the buttons except for the basic once but it also sped up the start up a lot. C:\Documents and Settings\adias1-ALT\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook this where you can locate the file. I am going to check out the tune up software anyway. Thank you again. Andrew

Hi all I have a computer which has microsoft outlook 2000 and it takes a lot of time to load. I defraged, checked for viruses and spam. Still it is taking a lot of time to load plus it hangs while loads. The pst file is almost 500 mb. I don't wether that is what it is causing it. Please help.
