I wouldn't know since I don't use Outlook Express.

But I don't recall hearing about other people complaining about Outlook Explorer and CCleaner.

I thought you should know that Outlook Express is by many considered to be very insecure. It is often described as one of the main ways that Internet worms propagate. By exploiting bugs in the parsing of e-mail headers, it is even possible for you to get infected with viruses, worms and malware without even opening the e-mail. You might be interested in Mozilla Thunderbird.

Hmm.. I don't think this is an issue thats been brought up yet. I have a question, do you run ccleaner with outlook express open? Try running it with OE closed and see if the same issue occurs.

I use OE on occasion and I don't have this issue with it and ccleaner but I'm also on winxp and not 2000.
