Outlook Express, Multiple User Accts, Home Computer, CPU Maxes Out

Open OE, Tools, Options, Maintenance, Store Folder.
Right click, Select All, Right click, Copy.
Open a new message window, right click in the message area, Paste.
You should have something similar to this:
C:\Documents and Settings\*username*\Local Settings\Application
Data\Identities\{E6FE2A32-A73D-4915-B144-46ACE62213EB}\Microsoft\Outlook
Express

Your long string of numbers and letters will be different.
In Windows Explorer, go to C:\Documents and Settings\*limited
username*\Local Settings\Application Data\Identities\{different string of
numbers and letters}\Microsoft\Outlook Express

Move the dbx files out of the Outlook Express folder.

Switch to the limited user and see if OE opens.

Hello,

I have my home computer running Windows XP and Outlook Express 6.0. Here's
my problem. I have formed three user accounts on my computer, two limited
accounts and one admin. account. When I try to use Outlook Express in my
limited accounts, OE will not fully open up and freezes. I look at the
task
manager at this point and see that my CPU is maxed out-it's usually over
90%
running "msimn.exe" which I know has something to do with OE. But when I
run
OE on my admin. account it works fine, even with the 3 identities I've
formed
for 3 different email accounts my ISP allows.

If you look up this link on this forum, this person has the exact same
problem I'm having, but it's so old and the provided solutions are so full
of
high tech jargon, I wonder if there is an easier solution to the problem
or
maybe someone could "dumb" it down for me a bit?

I would prefer not to lose the emails I already have, but if that's not in
the cards, then I guess that's just how it goes.

I've looked on this forum and haven't found a thread about this particular
issue, but maybe I just missed it too. If the answer is somewhere I
neglected
to look, any directions would truly be appreciated and I apologize now if
the
directions are redundant.

Thank you in advance and my step children thank you because they really
want
to use their own email addresses and I really don't like doing much as on
the
computer as an admin. because I've heard it can be dangerous.



I'm really stumped.
