MSN Messenger and my address book

[Cari]

I recently installed MSN Messenger and since then, my
Outlook Express address book hasn't been running properly.
If I right-click on a person's name and select
'properties', it takes an incredibly long time for the
properties to appear. I've heard from a few people that
they 't received my email messages. And, I also noticed
that when I try to send a Word doc to a mail recipient as
an attachment, I get the following error message:

Logon failed. You must log on to Microsoft Exchange to
access your address book. Error code: "Unspecified error".

What has happened and what should I do?

Thanks,
Cari
