This was asked by another yesterday and that was the first time I had seen this problem. I suggested to try the following, but the poster has not replied as to whether it worked or not.

With OE closed, go to the Message Store and delete Folders.dbx and try. You
will lose your folder hierarchy, but the folders can be easily dragged back
where they belong.

Tools | Options | Maintenance | Store Folder will reveal the location of
your Outlook Express files. Press the Tab key to highlight the folder
location, then Ctrl+C. Close OE, then Start | Run | Ctrl+V will put the
location in the box - Click OK and you'll see the OE files. Otherwise, write
the location down and navigate to it in Windows Explorer.

In WinXP, Win2K & Win2K3, the OE user files (DBX and WAB) are by default
marked as hidden. To view these files in Windows Explorer, you must enable
Show Hidden Files and Folders under Start | Control Panel | Folder Options
Icon | View, or in Windows Explorer | Tools | Folder Options | View.

Using Outlook Express 6 . At times OE will not open and this is happening more often. When I reboot I get a message that "Direct DB Notify program is ending". After rebooting OE will work for a while and the stop. How can this be corrected?
