Outlook 2003 opening email address links with Outlook Express

[JessieHumphries]

I have just upgrades 15 machines from Ourlook Express 6 to Outlook 2003 and
set Outlook as the default mail client. This was confirmed both under both
Outlook>Tools>Options> Other>Make Outlook the default program... and
IE7>Tools>Internet Options>Programs>Internet Programs

With 3 of the machines, when you open Outlook and click on an email address
link in an email (ie: in someone's signature), Outlok Express will open to
create a new email. The rest of the machines work fine and open a new Outlook
email.

I cannot find anything on the Internet to indicate what my problem may be.
Can anyone help???

Thanks...

Examine the open action of the file type "URL:MailTo Protocol" in the Folder
Options applet.
