I just upgraded to Office 2007 Ultimate and after I rebooted my machine I
tried to launch Outlook. When it comes up it said I had to download a few
Add-on's from MS site. I did what it said and it installed the Live Search
and ran into problems with the package. it finished and it told me I had to
reboot again. Now when I try and launch Outlook I get these error messages
Windows Live Local Add-in for Microsoft Office. There is a problem with this
Windows Installer package. A program run as part of the setup did not
finish as expected. Contact your support personnel or package vendor. I
click OK and it brings the same message up again. I see the error one more
time and then it closes and also closes Outlook and I can't launch the
program. What do I do now?

There appears to be problems with the Windows Live Local install package. I
have tried to repair it, remove it, and reinstall it and none will let me.
I keep getting the error I posted in the previous message. Any ideas how to
get around this?
