Problem Opening Outlook

[Guest]

I normally use hotmail for my emails but I decided to use Outlook however
when i try to open i get the following message - Failed to register a VB
Script DLL.
Reinstall or run Regsvr32.exe VBscript.dll to self register. The key
"DisplayName" is either missing or has an incorrect value. [File
:\ProgramFiles\MicrosoftOffice\Office10\forms\1033\SECREC(2).CFG, Section
Description]

I have tried to reinstall and also run Regsvr32.exe but I still can't open
Outlook. Can anyone offer any advice on how to solve this problem. Many
thanks in advance.
