Outlook 2000 and WAB DLL

I cannot use Outlook 2000 in Vista because I get the error 'cannot find
WAB LL' when attempting to send email. Is there a work around?

Known issue:

Does Outlook work on Vista?

The best fix is to upgrade to Outlook 2003 or 2007. You can try copying the
wab.dll to Vista and registering it. While this will end the error, the
address book may not function correctly. For more information, see:
