Default Outlook Express missing

It should be in Program Files\Outlook Express

If not, see Frank's reply

I hadn't originally. After you suggested it, I did another search, and
found
2 files, "26_MSIMN" under "C:\WINDOWS\Packs\SysFiles", and another "msimn"
under "C:\WINDOWS\ServicePackFiles\i386". If I try to open "26_MSIMN" it
comes out with the error message "outlook express could not be started
becasue MSOE.DLL could not be found. Outlook Express may not be installed
correctly"

However, if I open "msimn", outlook express opens but does not display the
splash screen with outlook express 6, instead it displays a linux icon in
a
splash screen.

Can I continue using the "msimn" program, or should I do something else?

You searched for msimn.exe?
That is the real name of Outlook Express.

My outlook express 6.0 suddenly went missing. The program file is not
to
be
found anywhere on the computer, even after using the search function.
Only
the address book is available on the desktop and the program file
folder.

However, when I opened Microsoft Outlook, and tried to import my mail
from
outlook express, it managed to get all my mails and address as well as
mail
accoutn settings from somewhere.

I am unable to re-install IE or outlook express, as I am using the IE7
beta
version and the installation file refuses to let me re-install outlook
express.

Please let me know if there is any way in which I can get outlook
express
to
work again.

My operating system is windows XP home, I have a P4 machine. Thanks in
advance.
