Pop Up message when opening Outlook

G

Guest

Hi. Whenever I open Outlook (to open Outlook I usually click on the
'envelop' on the explorer toolbar) I always get a pop up window. The window
has a blue header that says Microsoft Office Outlook. The text in the window
is as follows:
'C:\Documents and Settings\Default|Application
Data|Microsoft\AddIns\C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\SBCMSYNC.DLL' is not
a valid office addin.
This computer is my new desktop and runs MSFT Home Edition version 2002.
When I got this new computer I used a program call Aloha Bob PC Relocator to
move many files from the old to the new computer.
Finally, when I click "OK" on the message bar, Outlook works just fine -
never a problem. My question is - why do I get this window? Does it have
something to do with the Aloha Bob files which were moved? Should I do
anything to get rid of the pop up? It is not the end of the world, as all I
have to do is click "OK" and Outlook runs fine. Any help / suggestion, is
greatly appreciated.
