Outlook Express repair

A client of mine was having issues with Outlook Express crashing and there were not any new updates available for the software at the time so I did some searching on Google and found a Micro$oft help document that describes several ways to alleviate common outlook express glitches and what it constantly refers to as "funny" behavior.
Amusing as Microsoft software can be, the client was not having an easy time with her mail client of choice, albeit a terrible one, crashing and loosing responsiveness right and left.
I tried a few of the tips on the guide and things seemed almost 20 times faster after compressing the in boxes.
There were also many run-prompt fixes for refreshing important registry entries, not sure what good that did but it couldn't hurt to repair the install.

Just like every other MS app or OS you have to clean it up , and guide it along like a lost child with his face and eyes covered in a thick honey, and hands firmly glued to to the bottoms of his feet. Or just trip the poor bastard and laugh like your at the Mich Hedbergh show because you have a Mac and despite your job fixing the microsoft mis fortunate, error messages and crashes are a foreign tongue that you'd never care to learn except the few broken phrases required to order some tacos.

Anyway, heres the link
go fix some Outlook express, or better yet just get Thunderbird for windows, or better yet use web-based mail, or better yet....
...use Linux or better yet Buy a Macintosh.
The End.

I have not laughed this much while reading a blog post.

Only Microsoft would be ok saying their software can act "funny"
