    Did you reply to the forward? I think that's the only way they all get added.

    Options - Send tab - uncheck "Automatically put people I reply to in my Address Book"

    Open Outlook Express, Tools, Options, Send tab, then uncheck 'Automatically put people I reply to in my address book'. Click Ok.
