unable to type in message body of new email

[Dan S.]

Connecting to Exchange 2003 server via https://mail.mydomain.com/exchange.
Running IE 8 and Windows 7. I can login fine and read email, but when i
click on the "New" button to create a new email, I am unable to type any text
in the message body. Just a small red square in the upper left corner of the
message body.
I believe this has something to do with DHTML because when i connect with an
XP machine running IE8 and create a "New" email, it comes up with the popup
bar at the top saying "Click here to add this Dynamic HTML add-on/Active X
control". I add the DHTML add-on and am then able to type

I found the solution to this problem. see:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/911829
The 2003 exchange patch is downloadable but the exchange 2000 patch is not
and you'll probably have to pay for it. I don't believe this problems
happens at all in Exchange 2007. Just run the 911829 patch on your 2003
exchange server and it will take care of this problem.
