Does anyone know the file inwhich contacts are located in? I can't export the Contacts using regular Outlook options. From my understanding, these contacts are located in a certain file.
 
In Outlook Express it's a file with an extension of .wab

Thanks Sopman. Would it be the same for Outlook? I am using Outlook. Perhaps I will try moving them to express.
 
If your MS Outlook filestore is local (not on an Exchange server), your personal contacts are stored in the *.pst file along with your calender, e-mails and everything else. Search for *.pst

What version of Outlook are you using? You should be able to export them directly from Outlook using the File, Import and Export function.
 
I am using outlook 2000 (premium). I found the file, but it was 132mb. Could the size of this file be slowing down my computer?

Plus, Do you know what would cause IE 6.0 to startup real slow?

Thanks for all your help.
