Outlook 2003 Desktop Icon Problem

D

DaffyD®

I have an older computer running Windows 2000 SP4. I previously had Office
XP and I just installed Office 2003. It all works great except for one
quirk: The Outlook desktop icon for the most part looks like the XP
version--sometimes it switches to the 2003 version which is brighter colored
but switches back after a reboot. There must be some file or configuration
conflict. I did delete XP from my system and all the old Office files I
could find. Would anyone know how I can get the correct Outlook desktop icon
to display?
