Thanks for the reply Russ. It does not supprise me that Microsoft cannot reproduce this.

Has any other common user ran into this problem and fixed it? I would be very intrested in any other suggestions.

Some users are claiming that the freezes occur because of a "corrupt"
address in the list. However, no one has provided reproducible details on
just how those corrupt addresses are identified nor it what way they are
corrupt.
Last I heard, Microsoft cannot reproduce the problem.

The fix:
Export your contacts to a new .pst file. Delete all your contacts. Import contacts from the created .pst file. Fixed

The only reported "fix" I've seen is one user who claims they discovered and
fixed a corrupt address, but that user did not elaborate on how the address
was corrupted nor how they discovered it.
I've seen a lot of reports of the problem.

Interesting. Most of the people with this problem are on Exchange, though.
