Outlook 2003 is chewing up Page File

This would have to happen to the boss and no-one else..

Recently , whenever he opens outlook on his pc the PFusage skyrockets and everything gets slow..
 Interestingly he can open up https:\\server\exchange and use the outlook web interface with no worries. He can also use his outlook account just fine on another pc.

I've repaired and reinstalled outlook. no change.

Hello Warez_Willy!

Have you checked the PST?  Are you sure it's not currupted?  Have you compacted his PSTs?

Andre...
Try a clean install of windows, since his outlook works fine on another machine it could be OS related.

Pst files were non existant!!!

Removed Exchange server mail account from local pc outlook and re-added it.

Outlook rebuilt the data locally and now it works fine.  Thanks

(ps Hey barrettt, I reckon a clean install of windows is a bit of a sledgehammer approach.. why not reccomend putting in a new network or hey, gertting a job with a different company... LOL just being cheeky!)
