Default Outlook help please..!

Hi
Just started using Microsoft Outlook instaed of Outlook
Express for emails...trouble is when I click on
Send/Recieve a window pops up called Windows Installer
with a message in saying Preparing to Install.
It then stays on while the download of email starts.
The download of the emails is SLOW...38 emails (with a
total of only 181kb) took over 20 mins.
Even 2 emails with a total of under 3kb take 1 min to
download.
I have tried the Detect & Repair button....no help.
I don't have this problem on my laptop where I don't have
Outlook Express installed at all....could the problem be
something to do with the fact that although I not using
OE on my desktop it is still installed and, if I have to
uninstall OE, is there anyway to transfer the 2000+
emails I have archived in one of my folders to Outlook..?

Thanks!
