    Outlook Express problem

    I have a 1.0 Ghz Pentium running W 98SE. Its been running great for a year or more. Wife uses it mostly for e-mail. Some surfing.

    Last week she noticed for some reason she is unable to delete anything. There are some e--mails we have not opened because we don't know who from. She tried deleting, then I tried all of the delete keys and strokes, nothing. All that I could do was drop some stuff that was already in the delete folder. But we can't move anything from the inbox to trash.

    Waited over night, came back, thought to reboot the computer and it works fine.

    Any one heard of this before?

    Glitch... I see glitches all the time in outlook. I'm sure OE isn't bug free.

    If it is Windows, reboot, reboot, reboot. I have seen things that worked only after three re-boots! This is the legitimate source of many Microsoft jokes.

    Rebooting fixes about half of all Win98 problems.
