Re: Outlook 2003 hangs when creating new Exchange Account/Connecti

Only thing new i have found is there is a rundll32.exe in processes asociated
with the, Microsoft Office Outlook Credentials application that seems to just
sit there.
In Fact the rundll32.exe thats running seems to be doing nothing.

Please, can anyone help? Any ideas?
