The Rules Wizard is not showing on the Outlook 2003 SP1 Tools menu on
multiple computers that I have.

I am not running off an Exchange server but I do have the Exchange
Extensions checked on the Add-In Manager.

Any ideas?
 
ARe you in a mail enabled folder (not contacts, or calendar?)

the (insert latest virus name here) virus, all mail sent to my personal
account will be deleted without reading.

Yes, Mail is open and I'm looking at the Inbox folder.

I did some additional investigation and ran Detect and Repair. I read in
some other response to try and create a new profile for Outlook which seems
to be a workaround.

Is there another "fix" or will I have to completely rebuild a new profile?
If this is the only solution, is there an easy way to migrate the data from
the old profile to the new profile (e.g. contacts)?
 
Then right click on the toolbar and select customize. On the Toolbars tab,
select the option to reset.

Reseting the Standard toolbar did not change anything. It looks like the
only workaround is to create a new Outlook profile (Control Panel - Users -
Mail - Profiles). After creating a new profile, then the Tools - Rules
Wizard shows up correctly.
