Problem with Public Folder "favorites"

J

JEC

I have a client who is using Outlook 2003 with a Small Business Server 2003.
Outlook is installed on their workstation (running XP Pro) and they have a
public folder that contains the company contact list. I add the public
folder to the users favorites to make it appear under "other contacts" on
the contacts screen in Outlook. Each day the user logs off at the end of the
day and when they log back in the next day, the public folder no longer
appears under "other contacts". When I look at the users favorites the
folder is still there. If I remove the folder from favorites and then add it
back, the contacts appear again under "other contacts". Every time she
restarts the PC the process starts over.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
