[Spambayes] SpamBayes 1.0.4 or 1.1a3 won't install, tried all mentioned fixes

[Douglas Thomas Hayden]

here's the scoop:

Win XP Media Center Edition 2005
Outlook 2003
SpamBayes 1.0.4 *working*

....give to client...... (first mistake)

Managed to uninstall SpamBayes, leaving the toolbar in place (fixed per your
instructions).  When I tried to find the addin.py file (or close to that) to
run --unregister, couldn't find it.

Flushed out every trace of SpamBayes I could find (with help from Google
searches):  c:\docs&settings\<user>\Application data;
c:\ProgramFiles\SpamBayes; searching on 'spambayes', 'bayes', & 'spam' in
registry; etc.  Still wouldn't install SpamBayes.

Next I assumed that Outlook 2003 was broken (possible), and that it wouldn't
allow *any* COM add-ins.  So I downloaded and installed AttachmentOptions.
It installed fine, and added its tab to the 'Tools' | 'Options' menu.

When I run the SpamBayes installer, it runs fine to completion.  One odd
quirk, though:  It doesn't fill in the checkbox to 'register this plug-in
for all users.'

How am I being stupid, and is it possible to correct it?

Thanks In Advance,

Doug Hayden
