Nikkita, Of course this can't be an Outlook replacement if it's called "Outlook on the Desktop" .. it piggyback's on Outlook. However, you are correct in that it may load an extra instance. I've made significant changes to reuse the existing instance if one exists and added a few features. I will release soon, but in case anyone wants to test it it's available here: http://www.michaelscrivo...okdesktop/setupbeta.exe

In my opinion this is quite a useless program. When I discovered it I thought that I could run it instead of Outlook itself and save my PC memory as Outlook is quite hungry with resources. But the result was the opposite: each time you switch from Calendar view to Inbox, Tasks or any other part of Outlook on the Desktop a new instance of the service Outlook.exe starts running in the background (you can see it in Windows Task Manager). And all instances of the service Outlook.exe are kept! The program itself takes about 20 MB of memory + each instance of Outlook.exe takes about 15 MB and thus in the end of the day you can find yourself giving this resources hog 200-300 MB of your computer memory! A very bad piece of work!
