I have Outlook Express 6 and after I loaded IE7, I cant open up web pages from my E-Mail. I have plenty of security protection and could perform this task with IE6. Please help

First, go into Add/Remove Programs and select the Set Program Access and Defaults option from the left-hand column. You can also try using the program DefaultBrowser, opting to browse for another browser as IE7 is not listed. A third possibility is to download and apply this URL file association patch from Microsoft MVP Doug Knox.

Hope this helps,
John
