CAUSE

This behavior can occur if the fax management software from Symantec Corporation, WinFax PRO 10.0, is installed on your computer. This version of WinFax PRO is incompatible with Outlook 2002. For compatibility with Microsoft Office XP and Outlook 2002, you must use WinFax PRO 10.02 or later. For more information, see the following Symantec Web site:
