Backup Utility for Outlook 2000

Just completed a reinstall of Office 2000 including Outlook 2000.
I had been using a quite nice backup utility, provided by MS, whic
reminded me regularly to backup Outlook. Simply say yes to backup t
folder of choice.
When I went to search for this utility (which I apparently failed t
save) MS insisted I validate my XP & Office 2000.
No problem with XP but MS failed Office 2000.
This is strange, they have during 2007, allowed two seperate updates
(shown in MS log of updates) & possibly others. I have the CD's
Product ID etc.
I am advised I should contact MS by phone for a quick resolution.
Becasue the help & support MS facility appears not to recognise eithe
Office 2000 ore Outlook 2000 I am in a bind.
Can anyoone help with an alternative solution, or advise how to obtai
an Australian MS contact (no cost) phone no.
I believe this is a MS problem of validation & it has caused me hour
of frustration.
