You might see a number of warning messages over the Internet about email threats due to viruses, Trojan Horses and worms. But along with them, there is another threat that could be more damaging than a virus. This threat is that of file corruption, which prevents the application from accessing its data file. For example, DBX file in Microsoft Outlook Express. For OE users, the DBX file corruption could generally mean the disappearance of a whole folder or saved files. Corruption to the DBX file causes data loss and requires Outlook Express Repair.

Every folder, which you see and access in Microsoft Outlook Express, is stored on your computer hard drive as single file with DBX extension such as Inbox.dbx and Drafts.dbx. All of the DBX files are controlled by a single Microsoft Windows folder, known as Store Folder.

If the damage is very critical but includes only a single folder, Microsoft Outlook Express might crash with following error message when you attempt to open the corrupted folder:
“Msimn caused an exception C0000006h in module Directdb.dll. The message could not be sent. There is not enough Disk space.”
In some situations of Outlook Express DBX file corruption, you can easily repair the file compacting the Outlook Express folders.

If moving is not possible, then you need to repair and restore damaged DBX files using Outlook Express Repair applications.
