I just did a vanilla uninstall of Python 2.1.3, which was installed normally
from Python-2.1.3.exe a few days ago without "rollback", IIRC.  Afterwards
the file msoe.dll could not be initialized, so Outlook Express could not be
run.  No big deal; downloading and installing the OE service pack appears to
have fixed everything.  Thought someone would like to know.  I'm using XP,
the latest service packs.
