Outlook 2002 errors and closes constantly

Recently my Outlook started going into error and then closes. It does this even when I'm not even using the computer?

I have Uninstalled, reinstalled, repaired...but it still happens....like 10 times a day

The only thing I can think of is I had installed an Addin called Zip Out along with Mail alert.

"Zip out" Zips your attachments when you send and scans your messages and zips any attachments.

 

It's a known problem that malware can hide very easily in various archives, and the checking of various archives needs a lot of improvement. So I'd be wary of ANY software that says it can do that, since it's likely not perfect.

Now if you can review the errors/messages you get and post those details here, we can review them for potetial problems. Additionally check the Event Viewer for details. Right click My Computer select 'Manage' when Computer Management opens open the event viewer section and look for any messages relating to Outlook in any of the logs there. Copy and paste any questionable entries.

 

The Zip out is corporate approved, and they even have a license.

This is just 3 of many errors, but they all look the same

Well it's clear that your OS isn't happy with Outlook.

You mention this is a corporate PC, have you discussed this with your IT department? Are they ok with you seeking help on a forum such as this?

If so, then remove the zip tool, remove outlook, do a complete AV scan, then reinstall Outlook, then if it's working better, reinstall the zip tool. If the behavior reoccurs then stop at that point and report the issue so we can follow up.

 

LOL..that's OK I'm in "IT" also on development/implementation side...you know no one trusts "help Desk" heh heh

But I've done all that...I've gone into Options/Other/advanced...COM Add-ins removed the addins ( not just unchecked)...I've completely removed Outlook then completely re-installed..

One thing I'll double check is to see if it needs to be updated...although my system autmatically updates office and windows.

thanks for the reply

 

Hehe, good to know Just like to make sure...don't need the webmaster getting nasty emails because of me.

The only thing I can find relating to event id 1000 is the user profile. You may want to look at the exchange server (if one is applicable) for errors relating to this profile.

One post suggested SP3 fixed the crashes, so an update wouldn't be out of the question

Let us know, that ID is pretty generic but I'd not be surprised if a corrupt profile or such is the issue.
