Default How to set OE6 as the default mail client

My friend has installed a compression program which allows him to select
several photos, right-click, select the function to make it a compressed ZIP
file and turn it into an email attachment.

However, the program would invoke Outlook instead of Outlook Express. How do
we make OE6 be the default mail client without uninstalling Microsoft
Office?
