    Send page by email grayed out (64-bit)


    Hi,

    I have researched this problem and found the remedy to make the browser and mail programs the defaults in the Control Panel>Default Programs.

    I have Windows 7 Professional and Windows Live Mail. I also went to the Options windows of Windows Live Mail to insure that it was set as the default. I then went to the Internet Explorer Internet Options window and found that "Internet Explorer (64-bit) cannot be the default browser."

    I know about using IE 32-bit - I have had to use it for some websites.

    What is the point of have 64-bit if it isn't usable in all situations?? I haven't noticed any difference between the 64-bit version and the 32-bit version. What is it??

    I guess I need to figure out how to have my internet connection icon open the 32-bit version instead of the 64-bit version.

    Please advise.
    Thanks

    Hi,

    I am now using the 32-bit Internet Explorer and the Send Page by e-mail is still grayed out. Can't figure this out!

    Bye,
