I have Outlook 2007 and IE7 running on a W2K3 terminal server (in execute
mode). Here is the specific problem I have: there is a link to a website
that requires a login in the e-mail. I click on the link in the e-mail and I
am taken to the correct site and prompted for log in. After logging in, I am
redirected to the content referenced from the link in the e-mail. In the
same message, I click on another link that should take me to different
content on the same site, opened in a new tab. However, a new iexplore
process is started and I am once again prompted to log in. After logging in
again I am redirected to the correct content. How can I keep from having
separate iexplore processes from opening?

Here are some of the tests I've tried so far:
1. This works flawlessly on a WinXP Pro SP2 computer.
2. On the terminal server, if I copy the link in Outlook then manually open
a new tab and paste the link - I am not prompted for another log in.
3. If I am using OWA the links work without a problem.


Is there a way to keep Outlook from creating separate instances of the
iexplore process in terminal server?

The URL in question is added to my Trusted Sites. It is a link to resumes on
Monster.com. I do have my browser set to open in a new tab as opposed to a
new window.

As far as "dragging" is concerned, I do not see a way to drag a link out of
Outlook into IE7. I tried and all it does is select whatever I run the
cursor over.

thank you,
Robert Brown
