Lack of Memory & Disk Space

I, and a lot of other friends, are now getting the message "Unable to delete
this file due to either lack of disk space or memory" when trying to delete a
message in OE. Then the folders empty and the programme doesn't allow you to
do anything. Switching off and then back cures the problem for a while. I
have plenty of disk space (260gb) and memory (2gb). I am using XP SP2 with
IE7. I use Nortin IS, Windows Defender, Spybot and Adaware. All show a clean
bill of health. Some people have tried re-installing everything but the
problem comes back. As this seems to be a widespread problem, does anyone
have any ideas? And - is Microsoft trying to cure it?

Could try compacting the database.

Perhaps try an OE6 newsgroup, rather than a Mac one?
Such as;
<microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6_outlookexpress>
