Outlook 2003 closed when WindowsKey + M are pressed

Hi,

User onto me this morning with a weird one.
When he hits the Windows Key + M to minimize with various windows, Outlook closes down on him everytime. No Error.

The other windows minimize just fine.

XP SP2 running Office 2003

Any ideas?

That's an odd one

. Just minimizes fine for me.

Yeah I know....not sure what could be triggering this?

You know the way gmail lets you use keyboard shortcuts well maybe there is a program that lets you create your own shortcuts for your computer. It's a complete longshot and I seriously doubt this is it but you never know.

Is it minimizing to the system tray? Right-click on the icon in the system tray to verify

That's probably what it is. Forgot that you could minimize outlook to the system tray.

That's bound to be it lads.
I'll get him to check in a while and report back.

So simple eh?
