Outlook Express takes over a minute to load, during which time
"Connecting" is displayed. P-IV running Windows XP home. Any help
greatly appreciated & thanks ...

The dbx files in the message store are notorious for getting corrupted
-- especially the Trash. Find the store folder by going to Options >

(maybe it's called deleted items) huge? If it is, and you don't want
anything that's in there, quit Outlook and delete the sucker.
