About a week ago I installed a beta version of a firewall and it crashed my computer. I was unable to log in to my windows account, then my computer wouldn't boot at all so i did a startup repair from vista boot disk and a bunch of other stuff. Anyways, eventually I got it working.
Everything went back to normal except for one thing. When I clicked Send/Receive in Outlook or pressed F9, nothing happened. It would still send/receive as scheduled and on exiting Outlook however.
Since then I realized that somehow one of my e-mail accounts got removed from outlook and it wasn't checking the e-mail since the fiasco. So I re-set up the account, and closed and re-opened outlook, but now when i go to open outlook it says the Microsoft Office has stopped responding message, and closes its self out. I tried doing office repair but that didn't help.
First off, how can I get outlook to even open, and when I do get that much working how can I get the Send/Receive / F9 keys working?
Thanks for your help I really appreciate it!

Does anyone have any ideas on how I could get this working? I have a feeling that the only way is completely uninstalling Outlook and re-setting it up. I just don't want to remove all of Office because I have all my notes for school in OneNote, and I don't want those to get removed.

Removing and readding Outlook generally won't help. Try a new mail profile
instead.
