Installing and Activating Outlook 2007

[Guest]

I recently purchased a laptop and also Microsoft Office Basic, which was to
include Word, Excel, and Outlook. I set up my husband as a user and myself
as a user on the laptop. I activated the Outlook on his user screen and
everything went fine. I then tried to activate it on my user screen and it
said that it was already activated and I could not activate it again. I
then looked on the CD and the program Outlook had a red x over it and it
would
not install. I have two questions. 1. Shouldn't I be able to use the outlook
on both user screens because it is still only one computer, and 2. since I
paid for the program, shouldn't it actually be on the CD? What if something
happened to my computer and I had to re-install everything, how would I
reinstall outlook? Is Outlook sold per license? Outlook 2003 ran on both
of my computers with no problem. I'm confused about this, how does this new
Outlook 2007 work? Please advise.

You install and activate any programs only once one a computer, no matter how
many windows accounts you create.
You configure the outlook accounts individually for each logged in user...

Well, that's what I thought also, but every time I logged onto my user
account it said that I could only use the program 5 more times, then 4 more
times, yadda yadda, if I did not choose to activate it. That is what was
confusing me.
