Thank you for the very fast response, although it does not seem to have
worked. I tried it twice with no luck. I tried rebooting after the second
attempt to see if that made a difference, but it did not help.

The instructions aren't talking about using regedit to manually edit the
registry, they're talking about running a command which will do it for you.
FWIW, the SpamBayes entry is in 'Software\Microsoft\Office\Outlook\Addins\',
either in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE (all users) or HKEY_CURRENT_USER (current
user).
Some people have had trouble with the command in the troubleshooting guide,
anyway, though, so do this instead:
This assumes that you installed SpamBayes into "C:\Program Files\SpamBayes".
If you put it somewhere else, then change appropriately.
1. Open a command window (Start->Run->cmd.exe or Start->Run->command.exe)
2. Change to C: (type "C:" and enter)
3. Change to the directory you installed SpamBayes into (type "cd
c:\program files\SpamBayes" and enter)
4. Change to the "bin" directory in that directory (type "cd bin" and
enter)
5. Type "outlook_addin_register.exe /i:hkey_local_machine" and enter.
This should do the trick. Let us know if you have troubles.
