When launching Outlook 2003 I recieve the following error:

The add-in "C:\PROGRAM~1\SPAMBL~1\Bin\461~1.0\SBOLExt.dll" could not be
installed or loaded. This problem may be resolved by using Detect and Repair
on the Help menu.

I ran the Detect and Repair and that didn't work. I ran the repair option
from Add and Remove Program in Control Panel and that didn't work. I also
un-installed and then re-installed Outlook 2003 and that didn't work. I'm
running Windows 2000.

Any ideals...?
 
Did you have something possibly called SpamBlocker installed at some point?
Looks like Outlook is trying to load it

WIth Outlook closed, try removing the file %UserProfile%\Local
Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook\extend.dat, then start Outlook.

If Brian's suggestion deleting the extend.dat does not resolve your
problem, see if in following registry keys an entry for the file exists.
If so delete it.

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\Outlook\Addins

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Office\Outlook\Addins

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Exchange\Client\Extensions
 
found it and deleted it here: HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Exchange\Client
\Extensions

the error came back

deleted extend.dat and it worked!

thanks!
