Outlook 2007 SP2 is crashing when retrieving data from the server
Greetings all,
Using OL2007 SP2 on clients computer, linked to an exchange server 2003 with the latest service pack, users can receive and send email normally. Problems occur when the user received an email with html contents and needs authorisation to download the
rest of the email. When clicking on "authorize", OL2007 will crash every single time. This issue is happening on all OL2007 clients. OL2003 clients are working just fine. So I guess the issue is *not* on the exchange server
I have tried to uninstall and reinstall OL2007 but no luck.
Any idea ?
TIA

I've never heard of this "authorize" thing. Please describe the exact message and action taken.

Ed,
When one is receiving an email (in html format) using OL2007, OL is asking the user if he wants to download the images because the user is seeing full of red X images (being not downloaded automatically from the sender's server). In order to prevent
malicious code, the user needs to click on "download images" in order to see the complet html email.
So when the user clicks on "download images", OL2007 Sp2 is crashing (and restarting) endlessly. Its happening in the Win7 environment, using Exchange server 2003 with latest SP. We have this issue on all OL2007 workstation. Users
with OL2003 don't have this issue, using Win7.
Any idea ? TIA

I recommend you post this question to an Outlook forum since it is Outlook doing the crashing. You also might want to be sure that Outlook is completely patched, and if the problem persists, you might consider opening a ticket with
Microsoft Support becuase I would think that it would be a bug that Outlook crashes.
