I tried to add a new profile using the link that you provided below but I get
an error message "There was an error accessing your system registry". To
start with, I needed to perform a 'Restore System' and reload the operating
system (XP) and Office 2003. I did this and everything works fine except for
Outlook. I reinstalled Office 2003 once again and still no luck. I get the
'registry or Installation problem' message when I go under "Tools" and try to
add a new email account. Any ideas?
