Default emailing links from explorer

Hi Folks,

I have 'outlook' as my default email program and i use 'outlook express' for
newsgroups and more 'hidden' type of emails.
everytime i send an internet link or internet page from 'explorer' it
defaults to 'outlook express' as the program for sending this type of
action.
I am currently using outlook 2003.

Any assistance would be appreciated in making 'outlook' as the preferred
email program for this type of action.

thanks

divein

In IE, go to Tools, Internet Options, Programs, make Outlook the default.

I'll have to see if I can find the registry settings that control where the
IE menu setting for sending a page or link by Email is controlled.

I can't find it on my own. Perhaps Google can find it for you.
