Default Where is Office 2010 beta help/forum?

Is there a Help site or a decdicated forum for Office 2010 Home and
Business beta? I use MailWasher Pro (XP/SP3). Since the install,
Outlook is now opening every time I process mail from MWP to my email
client. Yet, in Control Panel ... Set Program Access & Defaults,
Outlook is not even listed among the choices, let alone chosen. Guess
it is a beta...

Also, anyone know where the 2010 program files are located?

Beta is all but history. The RTM version was released today. You'll find it
on your retailer shelves within a few weeks.

For the forums, check
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/...us/categories/

The location of the program files would depend on the location you choose on
install. By default, this is

%programfiles%\Microsoft Office\Office14

That may be, but it's not history for me for at least a few months
(beta expires in October). And who knows, maybe the retail version will
bring the same problem. I did fix the problem with MailWasher opening
Outlook, but now Outlook is opening on web page email links, even
though it is not listed in the Defaults. In fact, since installing
the beta, my default email client, Sylpheed, has disappeared from the
list. What's the best way to fix this? I don't see a way to disable
Outlook. Thanks,

Gene

Thanks for the forums link. There are about 7 files, with no
executables in Office 14 folder. And I wasn't given a choice at
installation, tho the FAQ said I would be asked about customization.

Problem solved. Control Panel Internet Options Programs. The beta
install sent Outlook to the top of the list w/o asking. Not cool.
