Re: [OT] Outlook Collecting Messages when not running. How ?

["andy_powell_is" <ukha@xxxxxxx>]

Last night I upgraded to IE6, I had not run outlook express at all 
after logging in but a few moments later an icon appeared in my 
system tray  (the Outlook envelope with blue arrows) telling me I had
new mail. I was quite shocked...

Have you got IE6 installed? If so it could be that - this has 
CERTAINLY started happening to me after the IE6 install... It's lucky 
that I actually noticed it...
