It looks to me like your addin is a mixture of a shared addin and a VSTO
addin. A VSTO addin provides the Startup() and Shutdown() events, or at
least it does if the new disconnection registry setting is turned on. A
shared addin uses extensibility. You need to make up your mind as to which
you are trying to create, you can't mix and match.
You also need to post all the relevant information, such as if you are
running Outlook 2010 in 32-bit or 64-bit mode, which will make a huge
difference.
