I wanna make Outlook Express as my default e-mail program. So when I click a link to someone's email address on a site, it'll come up with Outlook Express.

Problem: When I goto Explorer>Tools>Internet Options>Programs Tab...It'll have only Eudora on the list of default e-mail programs. What should I do. I also tried to make it default through Outlook Express's options, but it never works.

I have Internet Explorer 5.5 (not beta)

Did you install Outlook at the same time as IE or did you add it later?
Do an IE repair (Start>Settings>Control panel>Add/Remove Programs>Internet Explorer>Add/Remove>Repair.)
If that fails, uninstall and reinstall complete package.

I installed Outlook Express at the same time Internet Explorer was beening installed. Don't know why it didn't work. But I reinstalled Outlook Express and repaired Internet Explorer. Everything is now back to normal. Outlook is my default E-mailing program.

Thanks for helping me out.
