Outlook trying to install some Frontpage feature...

HELP!

I installed Frontpage 2000 on my XP system about 3 weeks ago, and ever
since, when browsing through my emails in Outlook 2003, it continuously tries
to install some Frontpage feature, before erroring out saying I must insert
the Frontpage installation disc. Even if I insert the disc, and click OK, it
errors out again, and then cancels. Is there a way I can keep the windows
installer from trying to load up whatever Frontpage feature it is searching
for? I need Frontpage on my system so I can manage a website of mine, but I
do NOT want it to continue trying to interact with my Outlook program. My
only rememdy right now is to click cancel every time the installer pops up
when looking through my messages... it's really annoying.

If anyone has any ideas, I'd be very grateful. I'm not computer wizard...
so I'll need some simple instructions on how to turn this "feature" off...

Thanks!

Not sure, but since your FrontPage is from an older version of Office, can
you try doing a repair of Office 2003 (either Help->Detect and Repair or via
Control Panel->Add/Remove Programs)?

Thanks for the suggestion... I'm willing to try anything at this poitn. I
tried to do a "repair" using the tool you mentioned... but that didn't seem
to fix the problem. Windows installer is still attempting to load some type
of Frontpage feature when I browse through my emails. It doesn't try to load
the Frontpage feature on every email... just certain ones, and I can't really
tell what the trigger is. Maybe the emails with a graphic embedded? Not
sure. Anyone have any other ideas?
