Finding where OE5 hides its files is a pain, but they ARE there. It
varies slightly between versions of Windows, but for WinNT they should
be under
C:\WinNT\Profiles\username\Application
Data\Identities\{some-really-long-number}\Microsoft\Outlook Express
and for Win98 they should be under something like
C:\Windows\Application
Data\Identities\{some-really-long-number}\Microsoft\Outlook Express
If you can't find those specific folders, try searching for a folder
named Application Data or one named Outlook Express. But the folders
for OE5 will almost definitely be buried somewhere within the Windows
directory rather than in the Program Files directory.
