Hi folks,

Making a bad habit of this.

Theres a lawyer at my work place who does a search in google. Clicks on his findings. This opens a PDF containing a list of names in a table along with a clickable link to the persons email address.

If the lawyer clicks on the email link it opens up 60 instances of internet explorer. I have tested the exact same PDF on my machine and it opens an email template so that I can email the person whos name I clicked, however it also opens up an IE window containg the text "Action Cancelled".

Any ideas why we are both getting different results? Something wrong with the links in the PDF?
 
Oddly enough had a similar thing happen yesterday when clicking a mailto link although not in a pdf. Spawned a load of IE windows with "action cancelled". Assumed it was the program associations being slightly screwed after removing outlook 2007.
