After furious head scratching, austinassman asked:

| About 3 or 4 days ago, I get that message every time I start Outlook
| 2000. This appears to have begun immediately after an automatic
| Windows Update. When I click for "more information" I get the
| following.
|
| AppName: outlook.exe AppVer: 9.0.0.2416 ModName: msvcrt.dll
| ModVer: 7.0.2600.2180 Offset: 00037efe
|
| If anyone can help me to fix this problem, I would greatly appreciate
| it.
