not running, the URL launches properly.

from within Exchange Client.

WORKAROUND
==========

- Close Internet Explorer before accessing a URL from within the Exchange
  client.

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Exchange Server
versions 4.0 and 5.0. We are researching this problem and will post new
information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
