I sent out an email on Friday and then later replied to it. Both the original email and the reply requested read receipts from all recipients. For one particular individual, I am now getting a read receipt every second for that email. The specific person has Outlook 2003. I have Outlook 2007. Any ideas?

I've seen this behavior a couple of times in the past when using POP3. Do you currently have Outlook setup to keep messages on the server, instead of deleting them immediately after downloading? If so, disable that option in the email account's settings in Outlook, then click Send/Receive to clear the messages from your POP3 server. Hopefully that will fix it for you.

No this is Outlook connected directly to an Exchange 2003 server. POP3 is not involved.
