msspc.ecf could not be installed.

[phong]

I can not open my Outlook. I have uninstalled and reinstalled and still get
this error.

"The extension configuration file "C:\Program Files\ Microsoft
Office\Office11\Addins\msspc.ecf" could not be installed. There is an error
in the syntax or formate of the file."

Please help

I tried to do a search for the extend.dat file and couldn't locate it in my
computer.

does that file exist in that location?
