Outlook 2002 keeps closing

Hi there,

New to this forum so please be gentle with me!

I have Outlook 2002, build 10.6515.6817 SP3 on Windows XP Pro SP2, and it keeps closing at random intervals, with no error message, no blue screen, nothing in the Event Log.

I could be in the middle of writing an email or just have it minimised on the taskbar, then all of a sudden it's not there any more! It sometimes saves a draft of the message, but not always. I've tried to see if it's timed with a send/receive but it's difficult to tell.

Please help, it's driving me mad!

Thanks in anticipation

Seems to be fixed now.

Hi there,

Well my début on this forum went well, then - I've managed to fix it myself!

It was the Haxdoor Trojan which had infected my PC. Symptoms included blank IE6 pages, my email kept closing and my Windows Firewall was disabled. The suspect file was mmx432.dll which Nod32 found in my Windows/system32 folder.

finished cleaning it at about 4 o'clock Sunday morning.

Anyone else infected with the Haxdoor Trojan, note it's only detectable with Haxfix.

Have fun, y'all, and thanks for inundating me with replies.
