reread this article and so in a sentence that you can ignore this error is you are on 2007 .
So I clicked on do not show this error again
I then ran the remaining BPA options all ran clean no errors
Thinking now to install "Forefront Protection 2010 for Exchange Server" any thoughts on this?
Thanks for all your help

I looked at that before I followed this
1.Open the Exchange Management Console.
2.Expand Microsoft Exchange, expand Organization Configuration, and then select Mailbox.
3.In the results pane, click the Offline Address Book tab.
4.On the Offline Address Book tab, select "Default Offline Address Book".
a.To enable public folder distribution of the offline address book, from the Distribution tab, select Enable public folder distribution.
b.Click OK to save the changes
5.To designate a new offline address book server, from the action pane, click Move to start the Move Offline Address Book wizard. This wizard allows you to move OAB generation to a different server. It will also copy the existing OAB
Step 4a is where I stop on my distribution tab the enable public folder distribution is greyed out
