  Usually, when you to bookmark a page, by selecting the drop down next to the 'file' box, you can press "New folder", and it create a new folder and allow you to name it.

  Now, it often does nothing when I press the button, and when it does not have a new folder, it won't let me name. I have to go to my favorites, right click and go to properties and then change the name from there. It is very annoying.

• my outlook Express freezes on opening because the albums email won't let me delete it

  How do I get in outlook express if the email at the top of the page hangs and will not respond?

  In fact, I have one than another thought. You never answered whether or not it was always the same message.
   
   
  If you go to the OE message store and delete the file Inbox.dbx with OE closed, when you open OE you will have a new but empty Inbox. No message, no corruption.
   
  Of course, which will delete all of your messages. You couls rename the Inbox.dbx to Inboxold.dbx and then try in retrieving your messages with this tool, but it is not free.
   
  
  DBXpress
  http://www.oehelp.com/DBXpress/default.aspx
   
  You may need to run in the extract from disk Mode if its normal recovery mode fails to find lost messages.
   
  Also, check the Windows Recycle Bin and the OE message store and see if you have an Inbox.bak file. If you do, note the date of creation. There is a way to restore your messages until the free creation date.
   
  And another thing. Let me know the Inbox.dbx file size as it is right now.
