My outlook will slow down almost freeze, then i will
close Outlook, gives me the normal do you want to send an
error report i choose don't send... Outlook closes, i re-
open the Outlook wants to go into safe mode...the only
way i can get back to normal is a re-boot... anyone hear
of this, is there a fix????
 
1) try running scanpst.exe on your Personal Folder

2) try renaming outcmd.dat to .old and restart Outlook. All the Toolbars
will reset then. This is quite a common problem with Outlook . The default
location for this file is:
C:\Documents and Settings\%username%\Local Settings\Application
Data\Microsoft\Outlook

3) try recreating the profile in Control Panel-> Mail-> button Show Profiles

4) try running Outlook with the /safe switch from your Start-> Run window.
When this works run Help-> Detect and Repair

5) try disabling individual add-ons in Tools-> Options-> tab Other-> button
Advanced E-mail Options...
