Default IE Menu Links to OE

Whoops! I meant I had FF and OE running and visa versa also.
Not [that is I had FF and TB running]

Ok, I check this and it is set as the default. I do not have Outlook only
OEv.6.

An interesting side note. I have had FF2.x and TBx as default in the past
and also had inter changed them, that is I had FF and TB running and no
problems. This problem has been around for awhile like 2004 or 5. I just
tried to live with it. Also, I found in the registry under current user

that
TB was the default client on my username. Could this be the problem? I

know
that the article states local machine, but it might be a registry problem
like that. HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Clients\Mail
