Great source of DLL files for those times you lose one. When you uninstall a
program that you no longer use, you might inadvertently delete a shared DLL
(dynamic link library) file that's needed by another program. You'll know it happened when you launch
one of your favorite programs, only to receive a "missing file" error
message that contains the name of the DLL that's gone MIA. The actions of
uninstall procedures depend on the uninstall utility that
came with the program you'd like to remove. Some are sensitive to shared files
and alert you when you're in danger of deleting one, while others simply wipe
out every file associated with the unwanted program. The good news is, the
Internet is host to a number of DLL banks where you can easily download the
missing file-in most cases, for free. Here are a few worth checking out:

It is quite easy to move your store root to a more convenient location, rather then buried in the Windows folder if you are using Outlook Express (OE). The reason you might want to do this is to preserve your messages and address book incase your C: drive crashes and you need to rebuild it from scratch. This way you have not lost the information.
1. Open Windows Explorer and create a folder you want OE to use for the new store, (preferably on a separate local drive or partition. You cannot move the store to a network drive or removable drive.). This has to be done before going to step two.
2. Open OE and click TOOLS,
OPTIONS and then select the
MAINTENANCE tab.
3. On that page click on the STORE FOLDER button and a smaller window called Store Location will open.
4. Click on the Change button in that window and Browse to your new folder.
5. Click OK to close each dialogue, and then close OE. When you open OE again it will automatically move the old store to the new location.
