Did you try to press and hold the Ctrl key in your keyboard and then open Outlook, Then try to remove the user account.

Have you tried removing the Outlook Express in Add/Remove programs? Who needs Outlook Express anyways!

HI....
Before you remove your account from outlook express, find the store folder path of OE (i.e. C:/Documents & setings/...../Local settings/Application data/Identities/......).

Then remove your account from OE settings, remove the identity that you have found and see next time it will not show it to you again when u open OE 6.
