Thanks for the suggestion Brian. Unfortunately I found no evidence of McAfee
in the directories you suggested, nor in those for MS Money, Paltalk, or MS
Windows, all of which give the 'can't locate' McRtl32.dll message.

I did find that the McAfee and McAfee.com directories had somehow been
restored under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software, although I had removed them
previously. I deleted them again.

And looking under HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT, I see dir for McAfee .PopupKiller and
..Shredder, which I will also delete. There are dozens more dir here with
names that begin Mc*, but no more that say McAfee, so I am leaving those
alone.

This problem really seems to live at a higher level than just MS Outlook -
any other thoughts?

Booting in Safe Mode does not remove the problem - I still get error
messages that some application is Unable to locate component
McRtl32.dll.

Look for registry keys containing references to that DLL and delete them.
In particular, look in
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\Outloo k\AddIns,
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\xx.x\O utlook\AddIns
(where "xx.x" is your version of Outlook), and
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\Outlo ok\AddIns.
