Outlook Error Message: The operation cannot be performed because the message has been changed

I'm getting error messages lately from MS Outlook. I've noticed the folliwng errors so far:
1. When I try to send a reply to an email, when Outlook attempts the send, I get the error message "The operation cannot be performed because the message has been changed."
2. When I receive an email into my inbox, the incoming message plays twice,about with the second message starting about 2 nanoseconds after the first message so I hear this eerie echo effect to the incoming mail message.
3. When I click on the little incoming email notification popup link in the lower right hand corner, I get a message like "link failed" or something.

So, Outlook is definitely hosed. Possibly I need to do something to my Outlook mail folders. From this site, I decided to try running "Help - Detect and Repair", but it's prompting me for some SKU011.CAB file, which I can't find anywhere. I HATE MicroSoft. Bill gates should have his skin peeled like a grape and be dipped in turpentine.

So, I performed the registry edit described here, in hopes of making the dreaded SKU011.CAB error message go away. Went back into Outlook, clicked on Help - Detect and Repair.

Now, I get a different error message. Bill Gates - may the fleas of a thousand camels infest your arm pits. Message is:

Error 1311: Source File Not Found. E2561410.CAB.

I found the E2561410.CAB file here.

Then:
M9561403.CAB
MG561403.CAB
etc., etc.,
until it got to ZD561402.CAB, which i couldn't find at this url. So, I decided to give up for the night. I despise MicroSoft more than I can say. And,it isn't because I don't have the installation disks. I have them. It's that MicroSoft sucks so bad, that, even though you do a full-on complete never-bother-me-again install, they still want to prompt you for the installation disks and for files that aren't even on them. MICROSOFT SUCKS A$$!!!! I pray you rot in H3ll, Bill Gates. May you rot in H3ll.

Update: Rebooting the server fixed the problem. (For now, anyway.)

You forgot to pray that the infesting fleas of Bill 'the bastard' Gates, multiply rapidly

Why don't you guys leave Bill Gates alone. Software is made by engineers (humans), thus is not perfect by any mean.
As for you Queen Pennie, I think that if an issue with Outlook gets you this disturbed, then you should consider a different field.Cutting hair may be?
