Hello,
When I start Outlook Express the following error message appears: "OE could not be started because Msoe.dll could not be initialized .......".
The message appears with an incorrect registry entry (HKLM\SOFTWARE\Clients\Mail\Default) together.
Unfortunately I am not alone. Who knows the problem (seems more often to perform) and can help me. Is there a possibility alone OE reinstall?
Any help would be appreciated.
This is from Microsoft!

This behavior can occur if there is missing or corrupted information in the Outlook Express Identities key.

Hi!
Interesting! I have just such a message if I am too little memory to have the active partition.
If I but the contents of the TEMP and the Web-Temp directory empty, and thus once again have enough memory, it goes smoothly! (Have a memory utilization monitor program running - VBSYS.EXE v4.30)
