Outlook 2007 locks on Send/Rec sometimes

[RVA]

I have Outlook 2007 and Vista. Outlook has gotten very slow. About 2 out of 3 times I send/receive it freezes on the last message download. I must go to Windows Task Manager to close Outlook. When I reopen, it works fine for a couple of hours. Then the same happens again.

While frozen I can close the program but it will remain open in the systray until I close with task manager.

Must I reinstall Outlook and if I do what would indicate that will fix it. Or is something corrupted?
