"Managing" Outlook vs Outlook Express
XP 3. fully updated.
Office on the pc, but Outlook not used.
Outlook Express as main e-mail.
I am puzzled and frustrated......
I use Outlook Express as my main e-mail. However, whenever I am on a website, and click on an e-mail, my pc starts up Outlook. Whilst I have used Outlook in the past on other machines, for my current usage, it is a sledgehammer, so I want to use Express.
I've gone in to Outlook/Tools/Options/Make Outlook Express the Default Messaging prog., but as soon as I close the Options, the default reverts to Outlook.
So I go in to Outlook/Options/Other, and make sure that the "Make Outlook the default" box is not ticked. It is not.
In Control Panel/Internet Options/Programs Outlook Express is set as the E-mail prog., and there doesn't seem to be anything helpful in Control Panel/Mail.
I must be missing something....................HELP! Please.
