Default IE Menu Links to OE

The drop down menu in IE menubar ToolsMail and News new message; send a
link; send a page are not working. It is thought to be (q or kb)823353. This
KB is no longer offered in the WU catalog. Should I remove it?

I would like to add that I went thru all your suggestions and checked the
registry also, and everything is set correctly. I did not have any questions
about the ole article. Still no luck.

Is MS Outlook also installed, Jim?

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
