Default IE 7 spawns about 30 windows after clicking mailto link.

This is similar to my question. I came here looking for anyone experiencing
rapid, uncontrolled creation of new instances of IE7. I suspect there is some
condition that IE7 to enter a recursive loop. I have TWICE now had to let
enough instances pile up that they compress to a group in the task bar, then
right click to select 'Close Group' to put an end to the loop. Anyone else
seen this? Is this a recognized IE7 issue?

Something really wacky just happened at this link
with Internet Explorer.

I click on the mailto link below, a window pops up
and tells me my mail client isn't configured properly.
I click ok, and then about 30 IE windows rapidly open.
It's a wonder the computer didn't lock up. My email
client is Outlook 2003, and it has worked great. I've
not experienced any problems.

Just really strange.

How peculiar. Loads fine for me.
I had a similar problem once with Opera Browser, clicking on a link within
en email would open up loads of Opera tabs.


Hey, Beck.

The site loads fine, it's when I scroll down to that mailto
link towards the bottom of the page, and then click it,
a small window opens up, informs me my email client is
not configured properly. I click OK, and then all those
IE windows, not tabs, open up.
