within last week or so, our OE6.0 has been opening or
switching screen names VERY slowly. Sometimes it takes 3-
5minutes to startup. Switching accounts makes OE screen
disappear for that time delay until it finally opens
switched to account.

Wondering (and how to correct) if problem may be in
profiles. I noticed that the Win2000 profile directory
(c:\documents and settings\) has two profiles of the main
logon. there is a \debbie subdirectory and a
\debbie.pcname.

System conconsole displays user profiles including debbie,
but also one identified as "account unknown".

Have searched (un)knowledge base in vain for help. Any
suggestions welcomed.
 
Hi - you'll have better luck in an OE group - this is for Windows 2000.

Try posting in one of these newsgroups:
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie5.outlookexpress for OE 5.x
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie55.outlookexpress for OE 5.5x
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6_outlookexpress for OE 6.x
microsoft.public.internet.outlookexpress.mac for OE for Macintosh

If those groups aren't carried on the news server that's carrying this group
try using msnews.microsoft.com (MS's public news server that's the source
for all the microsoft.public newsgroups).

A good website for information on OE is:
