I have multiple PC's in use right now by my users all using the same image. 
I installed Office 2003 with SP1 and now they have a extra signature showing 
up at the top when they open a template.  The user would usually setup the 
template just like a new email.  They would type what they want, and then 
put their signature at the bottom, then save as an Outlook Template.  When 
they open the template to send it out, an extra signature shows up at the 
top of the message.  Has anyone else seen this.  It also happened when we 
had Office XP w/SP2 and then we installed the SP3 patch.  The SP3 patch 
caused the same problem.
We've tried a number of things.  One of them includes turning the auto 
signature insertion option off.  With the option off, they can open their 
templates as they had saved them with no extra signature showing up at top. 
However, now when they create a new message or reply to a message, they have 
to manually insert their signature.
It's no big deal for me.  I've been telling them to leave auto signature on, 
then if they open a template just highlight the one on top and delete.  You 
know how users get though.
If anyone else has seen this or has a fix for it, please help me.
Thanks,
