Default Live Search Maps for Outlook function doesn't work

Hi,

I have Outlook 2007 on a Vista PC, and I just downloaded the live search
maps for Outlook. Nothing happens when I click on my starting and ending
addresses, and I never get a calendar. I tried to customize my "business"
and "home" addresses and the same thing happened, aka nothing. I looked in
the trust center and I don't have the box checked to apply macro security to
all installed add-ins. Also, it was listed as an active plug-in. When I
click "explore this location", an Explorer window opens to live maps, but
without any of my information input. It's just a map of the whole U.S. Any
ideas to fix this? I think it's a really cool idea if I can get it to work.

did you reboot overnight? more and more it seems like rebooting is needed,
even though more recent versions of office and windows were designed to
minimize reboots after installing applications.

Default Live Search Maps for Outlook function doesn't work

I have rebooted, unistalled and reinstalled add in. The add in is enabled in
Com add ins and macro security is not checked. I used this add in 1 time
successfully and it worked really fast. Now it doesn't work at all. I am
running stand alone version of Outlook 2007 with Office 2007 Home & Student
on Vista Home Premium.

Everything looks like it's going to work okay. I have my home address added
& selected to start, the location field carries over the address, I check the
space for send travel info with meeting invite and click get directions. The
button goes grey and nothing happens no matter how long you wait. I tried
using the add in for an appointment or an event. Same issue.
