Outlook 2007 (not Outlook Express), on Windows XP platform continually or
repeatedly starts in "safe mode." I have run office diagnostics; have all
Microsoft updates, run virus scans etc. etc to no resolution. Crappy
Microsoft wants to charge me to resolve their own shi**y product! What is
wrong with this product? I have had this problem since day one of installing
Microsoft Office 2007. I cannot locate a resolution onto Microsoft's terribly
inadequate service/support site. A class action lawsuit is my next remedy.

Try clean up all the temp file and c:\windows\prefetch
Here are the location of the temp files....

c:\windows\temp
c:\document and settings\"user profile"\local setting\temp

Afterward launch Outlook, then use File, Exit.
 
I had the same problem and have determined the problem to be windows desktop
searching. I uninstalled it and have no problems now.

It's better, in my opinion, to simply tell WDS to refrain from indexing your
mail.
 
I was told to do this by someone offsite...find the scanpst.exe for Outlook
and do a scan for the file and if it is found to need repair accomplish the
repair. So far so good.
