I've notice that my version 6.0.2800.1106 is a huge resource hog.
After several days without rebooting or restarting OE, I've noticed that OE
has gobbled thousands of Windows handles and objects (I used taskinfo from
http://www.iarsn.com to see this)
It is by far the biggest hog on my system. Is there a newer version for Win
2K?

In OE, Help | About MS OE. Give us some info from there. Looks like you
haven't been to Windows Updates in quite awhile.

Visit the Windows Update page to get the latest updates for your system.
Download and install all updates marked as Critical and make sure you
antivirus program is completely disabled before doing the installation,
unless you think that Microsoft is going to somehow pass virus infected
files onto your system. Seriously though, having an antivirus program
running in the background during an install of updates can seriously corrupt
the install, resulting in major problems.

In addition to what the others said, the most recent version number depends
on your Windows version. Visit Windows Updates.
