Solved: Outlook Express Broken?

Ok before all this craziness my friend's outlook express would open up and go straight to the inbox and recieve the messages. Now it starts AIM when i open outlook and it also wont go to the inbox, or receive any mail. how can i fix this. i really dont like aim starting when i open outlook express.

 

open AIM
Setup > Sing On/Off
Make AIM my default instant messaging program
make sure to deselect this option.

 

i'll do that, though i am always looking for alternatives incase one doesnt work.

 

thanx. that worked by making aim not startup inside of outlook. to fix the other problems i just deleted all of the identities and than recreated them with the correct settings, rebooted and then outlook was back to normal. than you sponsor.
