MICROSOFT CRM URL

I recently encountered an error when trying to launch the Microsoft CRM
Outlook Client. Basically just navigating to any of the crm folder
structure caused an error to occur.

Per documented sources, I've removed and readded the COM addin but to no
avail. I removed the CRM Outlook Client completely and when trying to
install it now, cannot get pass the URL for the server. Any URL, whether it
is the qualified or partial or even the machine name will fail and give me
the following error:

"setup was unable to find an instance of the Microsoft CRM Server
components."

The IIS is setup with 3 host headers. crm, crm.domain.com and crmtest
(machinename).

Has anyone run into this before?
Thanks

I have seen this error when the setup detects an old copy of the SFO client.
Did you clear the registry entries as well as the sql database?
