Meeting notices are updating calendar directly

[mfaisald]

Hello,
O.S: Windows XP SP2
MS Office: Office 2003.

Whenver someone sends me meeting notices, my calendar gets updated
automatically without any alert to accept or reject the notice.
I checked with other people and they are getting alerts to accept or
reject the notice.

Any suggestions how to get meeting alerts and stop them updating my
calendar.

Regards,
Faisal.

Tools->Options->Calendar Options->Resource Scheduling - what boxes are checked?

The option to turn off the "sniffer" is in Tools | Options | Mail Options | Tracking Options >> Process requests and responses automatically

I can't explain why changing that setting didn't work. What build number of Outlook? Check the Help | About screen.
