1.Hyperlinks in Outlook 2003 always open new IE browser window

My last resort
Running Office 2003 with IE 6sp1
O/S Win XP sp1
Hyperlinks included in an Outlook email will always open a new instance of 
IE no matter what!  I can have no IE sessions open or multiple.  I can click 
the same hyperlink over and over and it will still open a new browser window.

I have tried the many "so-called" fixes to no avail.
I have done the IE advanced options "reuse window" option.
Tried the Use DDE option in the folder options for URL:Mailto protocol, HTM 
and HTML.

I have tried the registry setting for Reusewindow value=1.
I have even tried changing the email editor from Outlook to Express and back 
again to no avail as well.

It appears to be specific to Outlook 2003 and it works with Express and 
older versions of Office work fine.  I know many have had this problem but 
has any solution been offered to fix this as well?  This problem was 
replicated on many machine at my company as well.  Any ideas?

2.a click on an e-mail hyperlink opens over 50 ie browser window

Yes - I ran a virus scan - that was obviously one of the very first things I 
did when I saw the problem. I updated Windows, Office and Norton Security. 
Nothing helped.

I don't understand why this wouldn't be an office issue when this problem 
has also been seen in Outlook - I googled the problem and found this very 
same behavior, but that was back in 2004 and I was not able to contact the 
person - the only difference was that his problem was in Outlooke and opened 
over 60 windows and my friend's problem was in Word and opened over 50. In 
both cases the problem was only related to the e-mail hyperlink. I work quite 
a bit with computers and have never seen this behavior before. Since it's not 
my computer, I don't really want to reinstall anything, but that may be the 
solution.

Any help would be appreciated.
