Hi

XP Home SP2, clean.

I uninstalled Symantec Corporate Anti Virus, and installed Avast Pro Anti- virus. Avast works fine, but Outlook, when opened, throws up an error message;

---------------------------
Microsoft Outlook
---------------------------
An extension failed to initialize. Can't open file: extend.dat. The file may not exist, you may not have permission to open it, or it may be open in another program. Right-click the folder that contains the file, and then click Properties to check your permissions for the folder.
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------
I presume Outlook is looking for Symantec !
I can close the message, and then Outlook opens fine, and i can use it with no other problems.

Can someone help with this please.

Thanks
