I had this problem with Office 2000 on Windows NT machines. Under the
operator's login, it would open twice, but under any other login, or
administrator, it would operate normally. I eventually had to backup the
user's profile (email etc) and delete & reinstall the user on the PC. Then
it worked properly. My problem was caused by O2k service pack 1. When
Microsoft brought out SP1A, the problem never happened again. (Now on O2k
SP2)
