    Outlook 2007 works fine on XP, connects to hotmail using 'outlook connector' with no problem.

    But, when I log onto vista and try to connect to hotmail, it freezes up and gives me a memory error? I can setup using my gmail account just fine. It only freezes and closes when trying to connect with hotmail.

    On XP, I am using Explorer 7, Vista I have Explorer 8 beta. If that helps.

    reinstalled outlook and outlook connector, still get the freezing issue when trying to connect to hotmail.

    It's okay, I log onto XP most of the time anyways. Just a little OCD when it comes to this stuff. haha.
