At work, I have set Firefox as my default browser.

We are also required to use Outlook2003(XP)... 

When I click a link embedded within an email, Firefox correctly launches, but
two windows are opened to the same site...

This might be a problem w/ Outlook, but just in case...

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Use Outlook20003(XP)
2.Get email w/ embedded website address
3.click on link

Actual Results:  
Two Firefox windows open, every time...

Expected Results:  
One Firefox window opens, or a new tab added to the current browse session???
This was fixed for 1.0PR, but you may have remnant Registry Keys.
Set IE to your default browser, then set Firefox back to default.  This should
clean up the entries.
