While setting up Outlook 2003, I inadvertently misspelled my Hotmail email
AD, now it is grayed out in the Outlook Connector, and will not let me
continue any further.

Q. How do I edit or correct the misspelled email AD?

just a guess... uninstall Connector and reinstall it.

Have already tried the un/reinstall of OLC....Have even tried a un/reinstall
of MS Office.
After each un/reinstall, I open OL and the OLC pops up asking for
username/password,
with the incorrect username(email AD) already grayed out.
These un/reinstalls won't work because there is a file somewhere that does
not get
removed through the un/reinstall process....It's kinda like the profiles in
Firefox, that
don't get removed when the main program is uninstalled.
 
Then you need to create a new mail profile - Control Panel->Mail Icon.

Rather than uninstall and reinstall the Connector plug-in, what
happens when you delete the account (which uses Connector) and
redefined it anew?

You could also search the registry for that e-mail address spectre
that you see listed in the disabled portion of the username/password
prompt dialog window.

Thanks Milly....
Your suggestion worked perfectly! Actually I just edited the incorrect email
AD.

After the un/reinstall's didn't resolve my problem, I knew there had to be
something like a profile hidden in another location (like in Firefox) that
wasn't removed by the uninstaller.
Once thanks to all.....Especially, Milly
 
You're welcome - glad it worked and thanks for posting back.
