to free up disk space outlook express compact

Removing the shortcuts from the All Users did stop my problem but now I realize there is an "official" way to stop it.

It is related to desktop search - right-click the magnifying glass icon in the toolbar menu and choose Windows Desktop Search Options from the menu.

If Microsoft Outlook Express is listed under 'Included Locations' then left-click on it and click on the 'Modify' button'. You should see an Indexed Locations popup where you can 'uncheck' the Microsoft Outlook Express: Main Identity entry and you will no longer receive the message.

First thing to try would be to go into the Registry and set the counter back to 0.
Start>Run>type
regedit>OK.
Navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Identities\{GUID}\Software\Microsoft\Outlook Express\5.0 (GUID being a long series of numbers and letters), right click the value Compact Check Count in the right pane and click Modify.
Change the value to 0, OK and exit Registry Editor
