Word is opening when I open Outlook

[Guest]

When I open my Outlook Word seems to be opening automatically, I say seems to
be opening because although a program tab appears on the task bar no document
loads (not even a blank page) this is so mysterious.

Any suggestions as to how I can stop this.

Some system info

Asus P5ld2 deluxe MB
Pentium D processor
2 gig DDr2 667 mhz
Matrox parhelia graphics (using dual monitors)

It sounds like you are using Word for your default mail message editor -
check your settings, Tools--> Options --> Mail Format

word shouldn't open to the task bar just because it's set as the default
editor. you will see it listed in task manager though.
