| | Windows Mail starts so SLOWLY For the last 2 - 3 weeks windows mail takes forever to start. I see the splash screen but have to wait approx. 1 minute for the program to start. I have been trying to figure this out but cannot, would you be able to provide me with some feedback or places to look. I am using version 6.0.6000.16386 (version that came with Vista) I originally thought it might have been archiving the folders but can't find anything to indicate this is the problem. Have scanned for virus, spyware etc and am clean. Getting frustrated, can anyone suggest something to get this started quicker? Thanks in advance. Bob |
