Hi I am running office 2003 and everytime I open outlook it pops up with an error saying "This file contains macros with an expired or revoked signature. Since you are running in High Security Level these macros will be disabled" than it pops up some more errors when I exit outlook and sometimes it tells me I need to save the normal.dot file it is getting annoying does anyone know of something I can do? please help

Sounds like you've got outlook set to use word as your email editor. Try testing how outlook starts up without using word for this by going into tools, options, mail format, and then unchecking the box to use word as the email editor. then restart outlook and see what happens.

If you do want to carry on using word to edit emails, try lowering your macro security level in word before attempting to open outlook.

Just open up word, go to Tools>Options, the the Security tab, and change your Macro security level to medium or low. then give outlook another shot and see what happens.

Failing that your normal.dot file might have become corrupted. If you don't have any macros in word that you want to hang onto you could delete normal.dot from your profile on your c drive.

Separate to these ideas you could try going to officeupdate.microsoft.com and make sure your office install is patched up to the lastest service packs, or maybe try the "detect and repair" feature in both outlook and word.

Best of luck anyway.
