Terminal Services and Default email Client!

Unfortunatley, I've made the mistake of opening Outlook 2002 as an administrator. THEN found this artical 218381 on the knowledgebase.

The problem is, Some users use outlook Express, and some use Outlook 2002. Since I opened that under the administrator account. I cannot change the defualt settings for the individual user. So, for example.

half the users use OE6 and half use O2k2

Since I've opened up the administrator outlook2k2, all the users that use OE6, when they try to send links or files. are prompted to use Outlook2k2. I've tried changing the settings in IE, and OE6 but they always revert back.

vice versa, If i log back onto the admin account and open OE6 make it a default, then the problem happens the other way. all users with O2k2 are prompted to use OE6 for sending links and files.

Any ideas on what I can safely eliminate from the registry sets the admin settings as the default settings

Hi

Somewhere in the preferences there is a &quot;Check to see if <product> is the default email client&quot;.
Try and make sure it is switched off in both email clients for each user.

I've tried that, but you can't turn it off once it's on. Something else has to take over the default.
