iCloud and Outlook 2007 support; APLZOD.DLL error. The set of folders cannot be opened

I’m using Outlook 2007 and up until recently, I had no issues using that with iCloud. Now I receive the following error;

The set of folders cannot be opened. An unexpected error has occurred. MAPI was unable to load the information service C:\PROGRA~2\COMMON~1\Apple\INTERN~1\APLZOD.dll. Be sure the service is correctly installed and configured.

I’ve verified that I’m using the latest version of iCloud and I tried signing out of iCloud and then signing back in, but it still doesn’t work with Outlook.
