"Not a valid office add in" message every time I start Outlook 2003

Everytime I start office 2003, I ALWAYS get two Microsoft
Outlook pop up boxes that tell me that C:\documents and
settings\...\Microsoft Shared\Geography\mpoai9.dll is not
a valid office add in, and a similar one that states
\ADDins\outlook.dll is not a valid office Add-in.

Please, how do I get rid of these.

If it is any help, I had to completely tear down my
computer, and start from scratch. I then used the "save
my settings wizard" restore feature to restore the
settings, and now I always get this error, and can't get
rid of it. Any help would be appreciated. THANKS.
 
Hi Tom,

With Outlook open, click on Tools > Options > select the "Other" tab > click on "Advanced Options" > Add-In Manager button, then unselect these Outlook add-ins.
