I posted this in the Windows Server 2003 category, but on second thought this forum may be a better bet.

I have been tasked with locking down a Server 2003 domain of XP clients such that the users can only run specified applications. I made a group policy for that group of users and used the "Run only allowed Windows applicaitons" template to make my list of allowed apps. Everything worked as expected except for when a user clicks a link in an email in Outlook 2003 (Exchange 2003 backend) they get an "...operaiton cancelled...access restrictions" message as if they had tried to run an off-list app, even though both IE and Firefox are on the list of allowed apps. What am I missing?

Any help would be much appreciated.
