Default Data files (psts)

I just installed Outlook 2007 and opened a couple of my pst's that are stored
on a network drive...with a password. Now, when launch Outlook, it hangs
when it asks for the pst password, so I can't even work offline to close the
psts! Help!

Default Data files (psts)

If you're using your PST while it's still on a network drive, you're risking
corruption. The file has to be kept on the PC so that Outlook has full
read/write access that's uninterrupted.

Remove the PST from your profile using the mail applet in the control panel.
