SYMPTOMS
When you close Microsoft Outlook while a Reminder box is displayed on screen, and then start another session of Outlook on the same computer using a different user profile, the Reminder from the previous session (belonging to the previous user) is displayed again.



CAUSE
Reminders are stored in shared memory, which is not purged until you quit the last Microsoft Office application that is currently open. If any Office application is still running (including Osa or FindFast), the Reminders are retained and redisplayed when Outlook (or any other Office application) starts again.



STATUS
This behavior is by design.



WORKAROUND
Make sure that you close all Office applications before starting Outlook using a different user profile.
