Thank you so much PA Bear. I followed your advice and it now seems to be
working fine. I would have never known to go to "Set Program Access and
Defaults".
Sorry about posting to the wrong group.

I downloaded I.E. 7 (beta version) and now when I open an email in
Outlook
Express and there's a link that I want to open, I can't.

When I click on the link it opens a folder that says
Leigh.TOSHIBA-LAPTOP.
In the address bar it shows C:\Documents and
Settings\Leigh.TOSHIBA-LAPTOP. Under that are the following folders:
Desktop, Favorites, My Documents, Start Menu, Windows, ntuser.dat.

Please can anyone tell me what happened and why this opens instead of the
page I'm trying to go to. I sincerely appreciate any help.
