I then tried Method 2. I was unable to run Outlook in safe mode. After typing in
"outlook.exe/safe", I got a message that it could not be found.

That's because you forgot to include the space between ".exe" and "/safe".

So I opened
Outlook the normal way, went in and disabled all COM add-ins. I then
restarted Outlook and am still being prompted for passwords. I'm not a PC
guru so I'm hesitant to try Method 3 - backing up and restoring the registry.
I'm afraid I might mess something up. So I took a look at your second
suggestion. This one was way over my head.

I don't understand why everything was working fine and then all of a sudden,
it's not. It's looking like I might have to pay someone to fix the problem.

Do not be afraid to try LOOKING in the registry to see if any of the error conditions described are present. If you're afraid to change the registry on your own, then you can pay a consultant to help, but the truth will still be that you're the one taking the risk. Either you're willing to take it, making sure you're making appropriate backups first, or you're not. In the latter case, you'll have to be content to live with the problem. I suppose you could always start from scratch, reformat your hard drive, and reinstall all Windows and all your other software to make sure everything is clean.
