Probably a corrupt meeting in the calendar. I have found that
it is usually in a recurring appointment that has gone bad during
the week of the freeze (when did the freeze start?)
1) Open the Outlook but do not try to open the calendar.
2) Create a New folder (Calendar Test)
3) Do an advanced find on the old calendar and sort events
by recurrence.
- Press F3
- Change the Look For: text box to Appointments and Meetings
- Click on the Advanced tab
- Click Field
- Select All Appointment fields
- Select Recurring
- Condition: equals
- Value: Yes
- Click the Add to List button
- Click Find Now
Drop and drag from advanced find listed events one at a time to
the new calendar, when you get to the corrupt item it will give
you an error message or it will hang. (delete this item)
Or if it is not a recurring (which our's always are) you could
perform the find for all and do the same as above...
Move all your calendar items from Calendar Test folder back to
original calendar (these are previously dragged over items).
If this doesn't work, write back there is another solution but it
is a little more radical.

I have one user whose calendar causes Outlook to freeze when clicking it, no
matter which client computer or Outlook version is used.
Every other folder in her mailbox is fine, including accessing calendar in
OWA.
Server is exchange 2003.
If anyone can point me in the right direction where to start troubleshooting
this, or perhaps work around, it would be great.
