Greetings!

A little bit of an odd problem. I've been using Outlook XP on Win2K seemlessly for sometime now. Today, for some reason the computer slows down almost to a stop when I try to have Outlook XP connect to the internet. There is no slow down if I am not connected, it only happens when it tries to retrieve the files.

I then tried Eureka Email and it did the same thing. It seemed to work fine, up until the point when it connects. I have on idea what this is and it is driving me crazy. Any hints would be greatly appreciated!

Tom
