Default Active Directory information pulled into Outlook 2003 Contacts

Hi,
We have an issue whereby all our user details are hidden in Exchange
using the user template in Exchange System Manager. This works fine for
hiding private information when viewing user properties in Outlook 2003
however if someone right clicks on the user and selects "add to
contacts" all this information is pulled into the contact form. Does
anyone know where this can be locked down or do we need to somehow
secure the
actual attributes in AD?
Thanks for any help in advance.
Cheers
Leon

Default Active Directory information pulled into Outlook 2003 Contacts

This and a related issue (leakage of user details when creating vCards for GAL users) have bothered me for a long time. Securing the attributes in AD is an idea that hadn't occurred to me, though -- thanks! -- but so far my attempts with ADSIEdit have failed. I've found no way to secure the information other than to omit it from the GAL itself.
