Can I Customize Outlook 2003 Map Link?

In the Outlook 2003 contact form, the "map link" button attempts to display
the location of the contact based on the address information. This feature
used to work well, but lately it is extremely slow and often doesn't produce
results. I would prefer to use Google Maps. Is there a registry entry I can
use to accomplish this? The page
http://www.outlook-tips.net/howto/displaymap.htm describes how to do this
for earlier Outlook versions but this appears to break Outlook 2003.

Do I have a workable option?

The OL 2003 map location cannot be modified. You can install MapPoint and
Outlook will use thatm but that's as far as it goes.
