I did thefollowing once, as people on this list reported it helped
also them:
Back up the TB subdirectories (and for good measure also the TB main
directory), and uninstall completely.
Make a fresh install, do not use any backed-up regsitry key. You will
lose a lot of settings, and you will also lose your regustration.
Type your registration into Help / Registration. I hope you kept the
mail with the alphanumeric key when you registred.
Copy the subdirectories back into the TB directory to have access to
your mailbase. Create accounts with the same names as the originals,
and TB will find the settings (POP and SMTP servers etc etc). Hit
shft-crtl-alt-L to make TB find the folders.
This worked here. The reason was a currupt registry (or registry key).
