Export your mail and contacts, remove Outlook Express, reboot, reinstall OE (better yet use Thunderbird (http://www.mozillamessaging.com/en-US/thunderbird/)) then import your mail and contacts back in.

Rather than re-install outlook express you can reset it to factory settings like this:
Reset Outlook Express - WorldStart Computer Tips and Computer Help (http://www.worldstart.com/tips/tips.php/1632)

Also this most likely happened from virus or malware activity, make sure you have both active and up to date antivirus and anti malware programs installed on your computer.

Hope this helps you
