Unable to send or receive attachments after SP1

I've installed Office 2000 on my new Windows XP Pro box. Everything seems fine until I add the SP1 update (from the O2K SP2 update disc from Microsoft). After the upgrade I cannot add any attachments, nor receive any. I have to do a system restore out of the update back to the "pristine" O2K state - which I understand is a security risk. I also cannot update my Office 2000 on the Office Update site.

Help...
 
You cannot add any attachment? Not even a doc-file or jpg-file? These are
allowed by default. The security kicks in for executable files and scripts.

Nope... cannot even add .txt files.

I'm baffled by this since I had all my Office 2000 totally updated on my W2K box and it worked as expected - I would be able to send text files, Word docs, jpgs, etc. as needed. I am at the point of completely unloading Office - using the detailed instructions for deleting all files - and reinstalling to see if that works. I'm hoping there is an easier way...
