Default Email Links open share LAN Mydocuments folder

Additional Info
Client's Outlook 2003 was set to Text Only mail. When I changed it back to
HTML problem went away. This is quite disconcerting as access to shared
folders inadvertently cannot be good from a security or privacy standpoint.

I have now talked to a few who say if mail is sent as HTML the reply comes
back as text and the code is strange with a message that extra line breaks
have been removed and it will not convert back to HTML. The 2nd person says
if they click a link it opens Explorer. Very strange and considering it
opens the senders shared Document folder I am very concerned about
security.

It takes you to the web site.
I will be going to the client this morning to check it out.

What happens when the original recipient clicks on the link in the
original message?

Can you view the HTML source of the message and see what it shows the
link pointing to now?

I have an client with a strange problem. If he sends an email (outlook
2003 with all updates installed) that has a web link (std www.***.com)
and the recipient (someone on his lan) replies to the message and when
he receives the reply and clicks on the same web link it opens the
shared My Documents folder on the senders PC. The original message
opens the web page when the link is clicked.
