I receive this message "c:\windows\system32\fxsext32.dll" every time I try
to send an e mail using Outlook 2003; my OS is Vista Premium Home. Any
ideas how to rectify this problem. It should be noted I up graded to Vista
from XP HOME. I'm starting to think it may not have been a good thing given
all the issues that have come up since upgrading or downgrading depending on
ones view.



Thanks,

Known issue. Remove your Fax add-in or rename extend.dat when Outlook is
closed.
 
Could you give me step by step on how to remove fax add-in? I've tried. I
have Windows Vista Home Premium. I think it's on my computer because I used
PCMover from my WinXP system.

You remove it from Outlook. Method depends on version which you did not
post.

Outlook 2007 doesn't use an add-in for the Fax Service. You have to rename
extend.dat

Okay what do you do if this is coming up!!!!!! How do you rename the file. It
in the the registry and thats not something a novice should do, so what else
can you do.

I understand that OL doesnt use this.

BTW, there is no registry editing involved. Just close Outlook, find the
file, rename it to extend.old, and start Outlook.
