Outlook 2000 crashes with blank subject.

I am running Outlook 2000 on Windows XP Home, with all service packs and updates installed. It works fine, except that when I receive an email with a blank subject line, and try to preview or read it, Outlook it freezes and dies. It is fine until reading, the email just being there causes no problems.

I know that this is not an isolated problem from reading usenet, but cannot find a solution. Anyone got any ideas of what the problem is? It doesn’t seem to matter where the mail came from or client sent from, and the probelm is very easy to reproduce.

All ideas gratefully received. A solution would be even better! 😉
