I'm not sure what it was exactly, but some of the machine's weren't happy, and 1 in particular would *NOT* allow a login via the domain for any users. The downgrade made them all calm down, but loose their trust accounts. I just tried scanning the registry for all outlook related keys, found 1 in particular that intrigued me. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Shared Tools/MSInfo/Categories/Applications/Outlook which contains a key called CLSID which is defined with a ?UID? (whatever the LONG grouping of characters that designates a "user" to the registry.) and I noticed it was not correct. By correct I mean it was not like any of the Identity values for the HKEY_USERS so I changed it and nothing happened. :-( I'll try making them administrators, launching outlook, logging off, and removing them as the administrator from the admin group.
