I'm running Outlook 2003, it came with BCM, but I did not
install it. I am also using SharePoint where I have both
a Contacts folder that is local and a separate Sharepoint
contacts list.
Right now I have 2 other (empty) Contacts folders (listed
under My Contacts) which I do not know where they came
from and now that i have performed the delete task (right-
click, delete) they are still listed under My Contacts.
When I select them, Outlook says unable to display the
folder because the object was deleted. How do I get rid
of them completely in the My Contacts List?
Seems like a bug since they appeared out of no where and
won't go away. BTW i am running the latest virus software
and I am bug free.

Very odd. I've never seen this. Just so I'm clear, these folders are in the
Navigation Pane, right? And you have no idea where they came from and cannot
examine their properties? Can you remember what their properties were before
you tried to delete them? What happened initially when you tried to delete
them?
