Email problems

Could anyone help please!
 
 Very irritating problemâ€¦ When I click on an Email address inside an Internet Explorer window I get the following errorâ€¦
 
 â€œCould not perform this operation because the default mail client is not properly installedâ€
 
 I click on OK and Internet Explorer then opens about 30 Explorer windows with the very known â€œpage cannot be displayedâ€ message.
 
 My system then continues to hang up.
 
 I have IE.6 installed and run Microsoft Outlook. <IMG SRC="images/forum/smilies/icon_confused.gif">

You could fix it in Internet Explorer.
 
 In IE
 Click Tools - Internet Options
 Select the Programs tab
 Make Outlook your default Email Client

 It might be a good idea to reinstall whatever is causing the problem [ Edited by Cameron Losco On Date August 26, 2002 ]
