    Changing E-mail default???
    « on: February 10, 2010, 07:09:26 PM »
    Hello everyone.  I was wondering if there is a way to change what e-mail system a computer uses automatically?   For instance, if I am on a web page and I want to contact someone's e-mail address listed on the page.  When I click on this it automatically takes me to Outlook.   I don't use Outlook for work or anything so this doesn't help me and I end up cutting and pasting the address into what I use for e-mail.  (MSN.com)   Is there a way to change this so it uses that automatically or not?   Thanks for any help and have a good one!

    I'm not looking at Windows XP now so I'm speaking from memory.  Go to Control Panel (I'm referring to Classic view) and open Internet Options.  Select the Programs tab.  What are your options there for email program?  If MSN is one of them, select it.  Click Apply and OK.
