duplicate messages when opening archives / archive inbox emptied?

Outlook appears to be re-downloading all messages (700+) from my hotmail pop3
account. (again...)

This only (?) appears to happen on the same days when I try and find an
archived email in my inbox.

The two times that it has happened today (it has never happened twice on one
day before), I was working on a Word document. So I was not deleting emails
at the time. (I have seen an errata re to message IDs getting out of sync,
but this looks like a different problem.)

I do not think that it is my Norton anti-virus. I have disabled the email
portion of the software after the first duplication today. But this evening,
after the email anti-virus was disabled, the duplication problem re-emerged.

The really bizarre thing is: my archived inbox is now empty, even though I
was looking at it earlier today!

Fortunately, I did a backup of my archive and outlook.pst files last night,
so I hope to be able to somewhat recover. (www.connected.com)

Setup:
Vista 64b Ultimate
