In the case of M$ Outlook, the extension for an add-in was an dll, then they could make via .NET or VB6, preffer .NET, it's more easy to run on windows today, based on the .NET framework environment.
That are used widely over XP,2k3,2k8,vista and 7. i had licences for .net and if i'm not wrong, exist some free licences from Microsoft to developers for C# and VB.NET environments. Hope helps Greetings.
