Default Search shows Duplicates that aren't there.

I have a strange situation.

I installed a fresh copy of Outlook 2007 on a Windows XP machine with
Outlook Express already installed and working. I then I did an Import in
Outlook 2007 of the OE data.

When I do a search in Outlook 2007 for an individual, say "John Adams", who
I know is not duplicated in the Contacts, the search result shows 2 hits for
"John Adams".

Could this have something to do with the fact that Outlook Express is still
installed and Outlook 2007 is searching both the Outlook 2007 Contacts AND
the OE Address Book?

Where are you searching? Do you have two email addresses for the person?

It would be senseful to recreate the search-index...
Another reason I can imagine is, that you have duplicate contacts? Did you check that?
