Just to add to Alck's answer. Go to Internet option and make sure Outlook is the program listed under email.

If this is ok, go to add/remove programs and choose Office 2000 and choose repair. This should fix this problem.

By the way, I do not think SP2 did this to you. It has issues, but I have not seen it cause this problem.
