Any error messages? Are you logged into Vista as an admin, if not, are you
using Run as... for Setup?

Thanks for responding, Diane.
There are no error messages. The program appears to open and even creates an
icon in the status bar; it then beeps, creates an inbox icon in the bottom
right of the status bar to tell me "You have new unopened items" - but that's
it. When you mouseover the inbox icon, the popup states "Inbox - Microsoft
Outlook Trial" and no more.
I am the admin user (only user, actually) for the laptop.
Hope you can help!

minimize to tray enabled?
