can you access your email through the web as well? try deleting the email from the server and then open up outlook.

there no webmail form what i can see, but the problem is with macafee.

this can be risky ***try at own risk

first: make a backup of the pst file (C:\Documents and Settings\<account>\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook)

turn off macafee and open outlook
once it opens and receive all the emails, delete the infected email (do not open the email)
close outlook, restart macafee, reopen outlook

good luck
