You haven't uninstalled OE. In XP and Vista you can't uninstall it. All you
have done is to remove ACCESS to it, which is what the dialog box says.
Just say "yes" and allow it to do it's thing. If you don't use OE you won't
be bothered again...
And BTW, OE is NOT the same as Outlook and is NOT part of Office...
