Outlook used to just reuse the same IE window over and over, now it is
opening a new one for each link...soon I have 5 or 6 open! I have looked at
the settings in both Outlook and IE and don't see where to change this. It
seemed to start when I updated to Office 2003.

HI,
1. Open Internet Explorer
2. TOOLS | INTERNET OPTIONS | ADVANCED
3. look if the Reuse window for launching shortcuts check box and click OK
 
I looked in the IE settings and the box IS already checked. (Your directions
were unclear if it should be or not, and if this is an Outlook problem or IE)

It seems to mostly happen when I open links inside emails.
