This time, my outlook locks up while synchronizing and it’s really been pissing me off.

When Outlook is open, it begins to download the mail, then the synchronizing icon shows up in the task bar with it’s little message.  Then outlook freezes up and I have to shut it down and send in an error report.

Today, I finally found a solution and am posting it here for my own purposes.  I NEVER want to lose this little piece of information because it finally worked.

How To Stop Microsoft Office Outlook from Synchronizing

If you right click on each of the email folders and select “properties” you will see a check box: Automatically generate Microsoft Exchange views”.

UNcheck this box on each email folder.

You will still get a very brief “synchronizing” message, but ONLY while it is actively linking to your POP account.

There, hopefully I can find this again if and when I need it and maybe help someone else in the mean time.

Btw, before I tried this, I renamed my old .pst file, created a new one, and it still did the same thing.  It WAS NOT a corrupt .pst file.  Then I did the procedure above, then imported my mail and folders from the old .pst file.

and that… is finally that!

The Real ID is supposedly supposed to make Americans safer, but just takes them one step closer to a National ID and then a world ID.

The NYTimes, in a January 12, 2008 story says

The federal government issued national standards on Friday that states would have to meet in order for driver’s licenses they issue to qualify as identification at airports and federal buildings, setting the stage for a confrontation with states that have voted not to cooperate.

I was just wondering earlier when the US was going to remove “land of the free” from the lyrics of their national anthem seeing as how they keep allowing their government to make policies that take away their freedoms.

Is it just me, or do the citizens of the United States just not get it? My opinion? they’re watching too much tv and simply tuning out while they’re tuning in.

From the Freedom Phone website:

Have you ever gotten mad and tired of people and others snooping on your every call, email, letter and financial transaction?

Now you can fight back and regain your privacy and anonymity by using the Freedom Phone™ for your mobile telephone conversations.

Knowledge is power!

GPS is the culprit that spies on your every mobile phone call. GPS is a Satellite Navigation System. GPS is funded by and controlled by the U.S. Department of Defense (DOD). While there are many thousands of civil users of GPS world-wide, the system was designed for and is operated by the U. S. military.

GPS provides specially coded satellite signals that can be processed in a GPS receiver, enabling the receiver to compute position, velocity and time.

Four GPS satellite signals are used to compute positions in three dimensions and the time offset in the receiver clock.

That little receiver (a spy chip,) is by law inserted into each and every mobile telephone sold in the United States and Europe.

Hello, we’re here to help you!

With every mobile phone sold in North America and Western Europe having a spy chip inside, that chip can identify you to within a few yards from where you are. This is accomplished by the chip utilizing the GPS tracking signals to spy on your every call and whereabouts. Worse, even with your mobile phone turned off, that chip can still track you. Scary isn’t it?

They say this technology is provided to protect you from yourself. As an example they claim that if you call your local emergency number, like 911 in the states, they can send someone to assist you as your call can be pinpointed to within yards and in seconds.
