MORE INFORMATION
DCOM stands for Distributed Component Object Model. It is essentially a new OLE. It replaces all of your old OLE files. It can be removed under the Add/Remove Programs in Control Panel. This will fix the problem.

This problem has only been seen to occur with MSFAX installed.

For more information about correcting this problem in Outlook 97, please see the following article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in version 4.0 of Microsoft Exchange. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
