Why do you think you need to "get" OE for SP2 (e.g., OE isn't working & you want to reinstall it)?
CrystalBall© sez: Start here: http://www.insideoe.com/problems/errors.htm#crash
General OE Caveats:
- Don't use Inbox or Sent Items to archive messages. Move them to local folders created for this purpose.
- Empty Deleted Items folder daily.
- Disable Background Compacting [N/A in SP2] and frequently perform a manual compact of all OE folders while "working offline". More at http://www.insideoe.com/files/maintain.htm.
- WinXP SP2 only: Do not attempt to close OE via Task Manager or shutdown your machine if Automatic Compacting is taking place.
- WinXP SP2 only: If your machine is fully up-to-date at Windows Update, installing the following patch (KB918766) will help to avoid such data loss in the future: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=86b68a78-f325-4a95-98c2-98af2256ccc3
This patch will be included in the next Cumulative Update for Outlook Express/WinXP SP2.
- Your anti-virus application's email scanning feature can also cause corruption. Disable it. It provides no additional protection.
