Hi

When a right click on any file while viewing in Explorer and choose Sent
to
Mail recipient, the default email program that opens is Live Mail, but
i
want Outlook Express. This is even after after changing my default mail
handler to Outlook Express. Is there a way to correct this ?

Thanks !
Daniel
