My Outlook will still run in the task manager after closing, therefore
prohibiting me from accessing my email account for unread messages from my
office computer. I have been able to do this up until a couple weeks ago. I
performed no updates. Any ideas? Thanks.
 
Some common reasons why Outlook will not shut down completely when you click either the X or Exit:

1. PDA synchronization software with your PDA in the cradle.
2. WinFax Pro (especially 10.02 in Outlook 2003) - contact their support for an alleged fix.
3. Franklin-Covey Plan Plus!
4. COM Add-ins.
5. Mail reminder add-ins that keep a stub of Outlook open in the background to check for new mail and fire reminders.
6. Anti-virus/firewall programs that are set to scan incoming and outgoing mail.

Milly,
Thanks. The only thing on your list is I run Norton Antivirus. I've had it
for ever, however and there hasn't been a problem until now. Any ideas on
how to disable that portion to keep Outlook from running? Thanks.
