Outlook 2003 - hyperlinks open My Documents

I'm troubleshooting a clients email and hit a block. (Outlook 2003) Whenever I click a hyperlink in the email body, it opens the documents folder. I've searched Msft and no help there. I've looked in Folder Options/File Types for the NONE: URL relationships, and they appear to be correct. Has anyone been down this road? Thx.

It seems to happen with any hyperlink - from anyone. I'm going to try the repair option and see what happens...let you know. I'll check the URL root also.
