Microsoft Outlook / Microsoft Express Slooooooooow

[cutlassman]

My Microsoft Outlook and Microsoft Express are slow to start. When clicking or starting these programs they hang for more than 30 - 40 seconds, and then starts the programs. U log out, it does the same thing.

I have updated my BIOS to the new version, scanned for viruses, turned off my firewall (Norton). But seems to hapipen when I had installed Norton Firewall 2003; but have removed it and have redone my computer again. But again, Express and Outlook are slow to boot. I have no idea what else. Wondering if there is anyone else that is having the same problem and if they have resolved the situtaiton.

Thanks.
