Deleting COM Add-In that doesn't exist

I used file and settings transfer wizard to move data from my old computer
to my new computer. I am running Outlook 2003 under Windows XP. When I start
outlook it says .....outbak.dll is not a valid Office add-in. and then I get
a second box that says the same thing with ...sbcmsync.dll. When I
acknowledge these boxes the program starts. However, when I go to Com
Add-Ins and try to erase these problem add-ins, the same boxes pop-up before
the list is populated and when I acknowledge them - they aren't on the list.
How do I get rid of these annoying boxes?

Hi Pete,

have a look on this sites:

"Outbak.dll is not a valid Office add-in" error message when you start
Outlook 2002"
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/319900/en-us

You receive the "<Path> = <sbcmsync.dll> is not a valid Office add-in" error
message when you start Outlook 2000 or Outlook 2002
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/235009/en-us

For Outlook 2003 the information must be also helpfull.

Maybe it helps.

Using WET will consistently corrupt your mail profile. You will need to =
create a new mail profile using Control Panel (Classic View) Mail =
Icon->Profiles->New.

Thank you very much - deleting the registry entries worked 100% and yes, WET
did cause me to have to fix some e-mail settings
