Hmm. I am sorry to hear that, GSH.
You can stop BCM from loading every time Outlook starts up without having to
uninstall the BCM software itself, if BCM uninstallation is giving you
trouble.
To do that, you launch Outlook 2007, and follow these steps:
1. From the "File" menu, point to "Data File Management..."
2. In the new Account Settings > Data Files window, select "Business Contact
Manager", and click the "X Remove" button.
Next time you start Outlook, BCM will not be loaded.
Note that BCM software is still installed on your boss's system, just that
he won't see it (and those error messages) any more.
If you are interested in solving the issue completely, we can continue with
the troubleshooting. Let me know if this helps solving your immediate issue
on your boss's laptop, though.

John,
I am also having the same issue with Outlook/OfficePro 2007 on my boss's
Dell notebook. It started about a week ago. I really want to just uninstall
BCM (it does not fit our business) but the Set Up Wizard "encounters a
problem and needs to close". I installed Office 2007 SP1 and the Error now
says Business Contact Manager Failed to load, The type initializer for
'<Module>' threw an exception.
In this Outlook 2007 Help Menu there is no "About
Business Contact Manager for Outlook "
