Hi Cary,
I tried installing Norton SystemWorks 2004 last night but the install kept getting shut down by Windows (SystemWorks installer has generated an error and will be shut down blah blah blah). I ran the Norton WinDoctor from the CD on the machine and it found 413 errors. It said there were 173 errors in the registry so after skimming over what the problems were, I decided to let WinDoctor fix them. That didn't fix the problem with Outlook but it did cause a new problem. My ArcView 8.3 GIS software quit working (it gave me an error message that some file was missing) so I reinstalled it an now I can't even get the online product authorization to work. I think I am really close to having to reinstall Windows XP fresh... again.

I have been looking into trying a repair install from the Windows XP CD and seeinf if that works and if not, I guess I need to start fresh again. This is really causing me a lot of grief.
