When I first open OL2k2 on my laptop I get a message that a recently
installed program may cause Office or other email programs to function
improperly and asks if I would like OL to resolve the problem. I say ok and
then I get a second message that OL was unable to resolve the conflict
because it needs to modify a system component that another program is using.
To fix the problem I am to reboot, (which doesn't fix the problem, BTW).

Any ideas what might be causing this or how I might chase it down?
 
Do you have more e-mailclients installed besides Outlook 2002 and Outlook
Express? Like Exchange client? These might interfere with Outlook update or
uninstall them and see if that corrects the problem. Also virusscan/firewall
software could have this effect on Outlook. Try disabling them and see if
that corrects the problem. When it does try updating them and enable the
software again.

Hope this helps!
 
None that I know of. The only thing I can think of changing between not
having and having this problem is WordPerfect. I had WP8 installed and I
started getting regular gpf's so I uninstalled it and replaced it with WP11.

Re: firewalls and the like, I've tried running without any other software
loaded without any change. I've even uninstalled WP11 and the problem
persists.
