Won't automatically fetch email

All of a sudden, my Outlook 2007 stops fetching email from the server. I
have to quit and restart Outlook to get new email.

From the menu, I click send/receive and nothing happens. I try changing
the checking email interval from 30 minutes to 5 minutes. No. That
doesn't help.

What could cause the problem? It had been working fine for 7 months
until last week.

It is running on XP sp2.

Thanks.

Did you install the feb. cumulative update?
Did you try detect and repair?
Do you get any errors?
Are you using any addins or utilities that access outlook data?
Does it work if you press F9?
