My emails are all sent via OE but over the last couple of days, for no
discernable reason, when I click an email link, it opens in outlook instead.
How do I change it back please?

Hi;

Within OE, click Tools/Options. On the General tab check that OE is your
default mail handler.

Go to Start | Run and type the following:
"C:\PROGRAM FILES\OUTLOOK EXPRESS\MSIMN.EXE" /reg
(Check the path to msimn.exe to make sure that is correct)

Then open Internet Explorer and go to Tools | Internet Options |
Programs and set OE as the default mail (and news) program.
