I know with Vista there was Windows Mail or whatever it was, and with 7 they removed that.


Let me state this very clearly. I DO NOT WANT THAT PROGRAM.


I have Hotmail, I would like to KEEP that. The problem is, when I go to click a link that would open up email, I get an error saying I do not have an email program and to please get one.


Is there a way to set it back so that when I click on an email link it opens IE and directs me to Hotmail??


Please say yes, please say yes, please say yes...
