Is there any way to detect when outlook crashes while I'm connected to it? I
have a program which checks my hotmail account by using outlook connector to
read my emails in outlook, then I programmatically hit send/receive every 15
seconds and check my email count every second.

I don't know if it's because of how often I hit send/receive or how often I
check my email count, or if it's just the crappy computer I'm using, but
outlook crashes a lot. The problem is that it doesn't close, it pops up an
"outlook has crashed. restart it?" window so the process is still alive. This
means I can't just check for the process and restart if it's not there. So is
there any way for me to detect that outlook has stopped working?
