Default prevent e -mail client change

My Computer uses Windows XP Home Edition and I am the Administrator

I wish the only e -mail client to be used is Outlook Express.

However I often find that the e -mail client has been changed to Microsoft
Outlook which I dont want.

By what means can I prevent any other user changing to another e-mail client
such as Outlook, Eudora etc.

Regards Flynne

Updates for Outlook are changing it from OE.

Make OE the default e-mail client:

For links in e-mail:

And:

Restores OE to the E-mail clients list in Internet Options

If you have MS Outlook installed, also see:
http://www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#13

"Send To" and E-mail Links Do Not Work Using Outlook Express as Default:
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=306098

Control Panel | Add/Remove Programs | Set Program Access and Defaults |
Custom + Down Arrow | Select the radio button for Outlook Express.
