Send link by email is greyed out?

Just fixed it. Solution is: go to default program in control panel. choose "set program access and computer defaults". Choose custom. Next unselect "use current web browser" and select ie8. Do same for email. Click apply and it's fixed.
Thanks for help, it got me pointed in right direction...

Fixed it for me also---THANKS

Setting the defaults in Cotrol Panel worked for me also. Thank you!!!

Thanks everybody. I just bought a new computer with Windows 7 and was having the same problem, but I just now fixed it by following your instructions. It was driving me nuts!

i've done all this and still all I get is a web page address in the email. No content. Your help is appreciated but this is frustrating the hell out of me. I used to have vistas and this process was simple.

Are you clicking "send page" or "send link"?

Eurika. It stil applies- "There are no problems,only solutions!" Many thanks djfl, you have made my day

I was right clicking on page, email with windows live which only sends the web address when all I had to do was click on file and then email page or link. Thanks again djlf

Thanks. Helped me too.

Glad I could help. It drove me nuts too before I found this forum and figured it out.
