In Outlook Express go to Tools | Options | on the General Tab make sure OE
is the default mail handler.

===========================================
I cannot guarantee it, but the following method may work:
How do I make OE my default mail client?
Go to...Start / Run...and type the following:
>"C:\PROGRAM FILES\OUTLOOK EXPRESS\MSIMN.EXE" /reg<
(copy paste everything between the > < but not including the > <)
(But first...Check the path to msimn.exe to make sure it is correct)
Click...OK...
Then open Internet Explorer and go to...Tools / Internet Options /
Programs tab...and set OE as the default mail (and news) program.
Good luck.
