Dear Worm, Thanks for your quick response to my help request. I'm trying to save $30 by not having to call MS. I tried both of your suggestions and neither one worked. OE-6 still won't open and msimn.exe doesn't respond. Any new ideas. There is an MS Knowledge Base Article #259927 that tells how to fix this problem using the Registry Editor but I would not like to do that if possible. Also this Article says it applies to Win 98 and OE 5.5 not ME and OE-6. Any new ideas?
