Outlook: Auto Date Add-in Installation

IMPORTANT NOTE: Please be aware the Auto Date add-in is not designed for Windows 7 and the developer has not said anything that would lead us to believe he ever intends to change that (there are no other products like this on the market for Outlook --- Microsoft doesn't even make one nor do they recognize this one!). This add-in is also not designed to work with Outlook 2010 or higher. If Microsoft makes a change or pushes an upgrade patch that effects Outlook, you may find the add-on stops working correctly and there will be no solution. For these reasons, it is recommended that users not request or become dependent on this add-in if they can function without it.
