Default Outlook Address Book Error

Every time, I try to open the outlook express address book (in the outlook
folder or shortcut on desktop), I get the following error "An error occurred
while attempting to open the address book file" and if I rename the book to
address book_old and try to import a copy of the address book(which I can
open on other PCs), I get the following error "An error occurred doing the
import process. The import process could not be completed". But if I go to
accessories and open that address book, it opens but it's not the same
address book. Any thoughts?????
Thanks
Rick A.

Please do. If so, you can:

1. Close OE & uninstall "Security Update for Windows XP (KB911567) via
Add/Remove Programs; or see

2. Error message when you open the Windows Address Book or you open Outlook
Express after you install cumulative security update 911567 (MS06-016):
