If I click on a mail link ie, mpierce[at]someplace.org, Outlook will
issue a warning re the mail client is not properly installed and will
not open an email. Instead it might spawn 45 copies of IE.

How can I repair this?

I've tried to add MSG to file extensions so I could use Microsoft
Outlook 2003 but I can't find the program.
Where is the actual program?

The first thing to do is open IE (or use one of the 45 copies) and click
Tools>Internet Options>Programs and see what's in the E_mail drop-down. You
should see "Microsoft Office Outlook".
