Default Using Outlook Express Rather Than Outlook

Hello,

Have installed and am running now Office 2007
Using its WORD and EXCEL mainly.
All works fine.

Now, when I'm in a site (via Firefox), and there is an e-mail link, a nice
page opens up to compose the e-mail,
and send it.

But it uses OUTLOOK.

I don't like Outlook, and am using for all my regular e-mails Outlook
Express.

How can I get it to default to, or use OE, rather than Outlook ?

Thanks,
Bob

Try:

Open MS Internet Explorer
Tools|Internet Options|Programs
and change the email client to OE

You can get to this dialog via the control panel|internet options, too.

Open Outlook Express
Choose Tools-Options
At the bottom click on 'Make default' button.

You can also do it through Internet Explorer
Tools-Options
Programs Tab
Choose Outlook Express under E-mail option...

If this is what you wanted then press the ''''YES'''' button (if you see it)
