Since the Outlook profile is stored within the Windows user profile area, typically a corrupt profile or one on a domain that cannot be loaded/unloaded quick enough gets overwritten. The other, more simple explanation is that your organization has a security policy in place that deleted the autocache daily. Alisa and Steve,

A user complained that the history-list had stopped working. I used a backup of a user's roaming-profile to recover an old NK2 file, then overwrote the NK2 on her local machine. Once I launched Outlook again, everything worked as expected! Thanks! --Ari Fantastic info! A user complained that the history-list had stopped working.

What do you think is up?
