Free/busy is data that tells others trying to schedule meetings with you
whether or not you are available during the tie they're choosing. If you're
on a home machine using a POP account, free/busy isn't too useful.

Click Tools>Options>Calendar Options>Free/Busy Options. What do you see
there?

It says "Publish 2 months of calendar free/busy information to the server"
and "update free/busy every 15 mins"

And is there a server specified in the text field toward the bottom?

No - it has "publish at my location" but the box is unchecked, and then
"search location" which is blank.
If I check the "publish at my location" box the greyed area becomes white,
but no location. Presumably one would have to type in a location.

Try setting the "Publish X months" value to zero.
