Desktop shortcut changes to OE?

[Gareth]

I've noticed this intermittent problem for a number of months and didn't
really worry about it too much but it has started to become a nuisance.
Basically my desktop shortcut icon to Outlook will intermittently change, on
boot, to a shortcut icon to Outlook Express. The problem occurs frequently -
about 1 in every 2 or perhaps 3 boots.

Clicking on the icon when it presents as the OE icon takes me to OE;
clicking it when it presents as the Outlook icon takes me to Outlook.

It's a very odd problem (I think) - why would and how does the shortcut path
change randomly?

Is there a fix for this problem?

Gareth.

Gareth,

Try this. Go to Start>Programs>Microsoft Office>Outlook and then right-click
on Outlook, choose Send to, Desktop create a short cut. Delete the previous
desktop short cut.

Let us know if this fixes your problem or not.
