    Hello jpk,

    If you like, you could send an email with the URL of the website in it to the recipient.

    So I can't directly, while having a website open on my screen, forward that site to someone else's email? The reason I ask, I have a friend that used to be on AOL and he could forward that address to anyone by just clicking on a button. Explorer has no similar function? My friend is older a computer user with very basic skills. The more complex the process is for him, the more confusing.

    I see.

    In Internet Explorer, you could right click on a link, click on All Accelerators, and click on E-mail with Windows Live like below to open your online outlook.com (live.com) email with the link in it.

    Other than needing an outlook.com email account, double check to make sure that you have the E-mail with Windows Live accelerator enabled. It's enabled by default though.

    Internet Explorer - Enable or Disable Accelerator Add-ons
