Summary: .dll doesn't stay checked in COM Add-Ins window

Initial Comment:
I downloaded some Windows security patches yesterday 
and SpamBayes no longer appeared in the toolbar.  

I uninstalled and reinstalled both SpamBayes and 
Outlook.  I tried to instal Spambayes using the binary 
and the addin.py source.  

The COM add-in appeared in the Outlook menu, I 
checked it, and chose OK.  Then when I opened the 
COM add-in window again, the Spam Bayes add-in 
wasn't checked.  The attached log file documents three 
tries.

I removed the .dll from the COM add-in window, and 
then added it in again.  Sometimes this caused Outlook 
to Crash.  

Strangely enough, the log file shows the application 
trying to access files on the E: drive.  Both Outlook and 
Spambayes are installed on my C: drive.  

As a note, I've passed this program to several 
associates who love the software.  They worry though, 
that my problems may come their way.  Let me know if I 
can offer any other information.  

Thanks
