Do you have this Registry key?...

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\WAB\WAB4

If not, STOP; If so, is there a DWORD named UseOutlook (NB: no space)
and is
its value set to 1 (one)?

If not, STOP; If so, Address Book is configured to share contacts
with
Outlook, even if you don't use it (can happen with the install of
Office).
Change the value to 0 (zero) and all should be well. (If that DWORD
is not
present, don't create it, and don't alter any other DWORD values.)

Note that any changes (additions, deletions, edits) made while
sharing was
enabled will not be available (displayed) in Address Book when
sharing is
disabled.
