Problem with Microsoft Communicator in connection with Outlook

Hi Techs,
Well aside from my Out of Office Assistant Issue, once again, I am having an Outlook issue but not directly to it. It has some connection with my Microsoft Communicator 2007. I am receiving this error:
There was a problem connecting to Microsoft Office Outlook. Outlook is not installed or configured correctly. Repair or reinstall Outlook, and then sign out and sign back in to Communicator.
I am a little too exhausted finding out that after a good vacation, problems will welcome me in the office. I am able to sign in fine with Communicator, but I do not want to see any error messages with the program that I am using.
It makes me think that sooner or later, the issue will explode and mess up with my work. And so, as much as possible, I would want all the errors to vanish.
If there are any ideas, it is mostly welcome.
