Default windows auto updates changes outlook

whenever I have an automatic update to my windows XP 2000, after I install
it, my outlook (2000) changes the color of the desktop icon to yellow (from
green). I then cannot open outlook and have to use the Office 2000 repair
disk to restore my Outlook to it's original condition. Any idea why this
happens? and how can I fix this problem? Thanks in advance.

It sounds like you have multiple versions of Outlook installed on your
system then. The yellow icon made its debut in Outlook 2003. Verify your
Add/Remove Programs list in Control Panel for Outlook or Office 2003 or
later installations.
