Some other programs can cause this. If you have Windows Desktop Search installed, go to Control Panel | Indexing options (I think that's where it is) and disable OE from being indexed. If that doesn't fix it, then its some other program. steve "Lilly51" wrote in message news:314c8be4-520b-4e4a-aeb1-b7a5f8398ac9...outlook express keeps asking me to compact files, even though i let it it keeps asking over and over again every 10- 20 min and no matter how many times i let it compact the files it keeps asking me to do it again
