Default Problem Opening Outlook XP

I was having a few small problems with outlook xp so I uninstalled the
whole office suite. After uninstalling I cleaned everything refering
to "office", "outlook" in the registry (windows xp professional
w/sp2) with jv16 PowerTools 2006. Then I reinstalled Office XP.
Everything works except, when opening outlook I get the message
"Failed to register a VB Script DLL. Reinstall or run Regsvr32.exe
Vbscript.dll to self register.". Then outlook closes. I have
registered vbscript.dll successfully and still the error. I have
un/reinstalled several times now and still the same problem.
Outlook Express still works but no Outlook XP.
Are there any ideas as to how to fix this problem?

Determine if the vbscript.dll is the latest and greatest (you have installed
all the Office XP updates and patches, correct). You should be on Office XP
Service Pack 3 + security updates after.

Also, try regsvr32 /u vbscript.dll, then regsvr32 vbscript.dll.
