I haven't had poutlook load for like a year, I found nothing that it does or affects. You might wanna get rid of it (move it somewhere in case someone tells us some reason I don't know to use it.

Really glad to hear you're not lockin' it up anymaore too.

So, I decided to experiment with changing the order of startup. The default order (with just VC installed) is:

VC, wisbar, poutlook, cleartempexpress.

SKTools won't change the order for some reason. But I found that if I deleted all the startup links from windows/startup then manually replaced them in the order I wanted, that would change the startup order (as indicated in SKTools). Anyway, I changed the order to:

VC, poutlook, cleartemp, wisbar.

I tried this order because putting Mortbuttons between VC and wisbar had worked. I just now did 20 soft resets and not an single lockup. Before, with the original order, I was getting about 20 - 25% lockups. Anyway, it seems their frequency is much reduced.
