PowerPoint Show not Opening in IE

W

WebArchitect

I seem to be having difficulty trying to make a pps file (Power Point
Show file) open directly to a powerpoint show in Internet Explorer.
When you click on the .pps hyperlink it opens up in powerpoint and you
can edit the file (which is not what i want - need it to go directly
to the powerpoint show)

If you click on the link using firefox, then it opens up in a show
fine.

I have tried setting the file associations to set pps files to open in
PowerPoint viewer but this didnt make a difference.

I have also tried setting the Mime type on the server to accept the
file type which didnt make a difference either

It seems that the only computers that are effected are ones that have
powerpoint installed.
