Disable the addins from Addin Manager, specifically Symantec addins.

You are welcome, tigerbam!
I had same error message, but the only way for me to resolve the issue was to delete the user profile then recreate it.

I also found the if you find the file extend.dat, located at %userprofile%\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook\and remove or rename it. During next start of Outlook app this file will be created again, and this error about vpmsece4.dll will be resolved.
It is easily removed, but how do you get the new Symantec product installed after removing the old one?
