Are Visio & VBox related & what are they.

[MS]

I've been periodically getting the error message about Vbox!(0010-0016-0120)
not being able to load or something & it clearly is fouling up Outlook. I
can only find two instances of Vbox & none of Visio on my computer.

One is Program Files\Act\vbox?430.dll (Can't make out what the ? is) The
weird thing is that ACT! is a contacts data base. The second is in
Windows\System 32, same file name...both are 323KB application extensions.

HELP! I have no idea why this just started up. Thanks.

A Google search for "Vbox Visio" will give you an explanation.

It's been a while, VBox was a container for the Visio 2000 preview. It
caused a lot of hassles.

I did the search for Visio & VBox, which, ironically, led me back here. The
problem is I can find no instances of Visio anywhere in my computer or VBox,
not in the program files, in the registry, the delete programs...yet this
stupid VBox message keeps messing up my Outlook. any other suggestions?

Thanks

Well, Google is finding the most recent information it can about Visio
and Vbox, which just happens to be your original message.
But Google finds plenty more references to Outlook and Vbox, VBox was
also used for much other trial software including Norton stuff.
How do you perceive a connection with Visio ? Your original message
only mentions Outlook, Vbox and Act!

First, thanks for sticking with me on this, LOL. I went through a lot of the
Google stuff, but it assumes you have Visio...which I don't. I don't even
know what it is. It's the VBox messages that are hanging up Outlook that's
driving me crazy. Can I just delete the two instances of VBox that I found?
