Default Mail Client
IE 8, OE 6, Windows XP
Email address links give that error that this client is not installed properly. I have read and tried just about all suggestions, including START | RUN regsvr32 sendmail.dll regsvr32 "%ProgramFiles%\Outlook Express\msoe.dll" "C:\PROGRAM FILES\OUTLOOK EXPRESS\MSIMN.EXE" /reg regsvr32 urlmon.dll regsvr32 softpub.dll In my File Types, there is no URL: Mailto Protocol. I try to add a New and am prompted for File Extension. What goes here? I assume I put something in this field and then will be prompted to put that Mailto Protocol (space clarity). Earl |

Thanks, the KB 306098 of OE Tools "Make this the default" did it.
