nope, that didn't do it
on a + note, tho, it did fix a different issue i was having :)
could it be because my "trial version" of office outlook has expired? i installed the full version (that came with my device) on my old PC. when i got the new computer, i couldn't find the cd sleeve that had the 25 digig validation code and the butt heads at MS wouldn't just hook me up with another.
i guess i have to go buy it, but i'm concerned that this issue will persist even after i do.
