The reg edit worked for me. I have been looking HIGH and LOW for a solution to this problem. All problems seem to be related to XP or Vista and not 7.
Clicking a mailto link opened 50-75 instances of IE and not my default client Outlook 2003. Thanks! |

Hello Abe,
You can go into Default Programs (Set Associations option), and scroll down towards the very bottom until you see the MAILTO protocol if listed here instead (should be). From here, you can select MAILTO, click on the Change program button, and select to have MAILTO use Windows Live Mail again. ![]() Attachment 198921 Hope this helps, Shawn |

I scrolled all the way to the bottom, and there is no "mail to" listed. Nowhere. I am trying to use Yahoo, not that I love it, but it's what I ended up with, and it is simple, like me. Do not like WLM.

Post #4 of this thread explains how to make it listed, if it's not there.
