If memory serves, OE is really a subset of Internet Explorer. That said, I'm willing to guess you have a piece of mail that may have corrupt or malicious html code in it. How is your IE working? I always hated html mail. Heck, before I retired, the "Office " disabled all rich text & html formatting at the Exchange Server because of the potential for harm from malicious code delivered via email.
