How do I change my default email location from Outlook Express to Outlook? I have already set it up in Explorer as the default and all my email still goes to express.
 
1) Sounds like you've already done this step, but: Make sure Outlook is
listed as your default mail program here: Control Panel | Internet Options
| Programs tab.

2) Remove all mail accounts from Outlook Express (unless you can't bear to
part with them for some reason).

3) Disable automatic checking for new mail in OE.

4) Only open OE if you're going to use it for newsreading (Outlook doesn't
have its own newsreader, it uses OE for that), and either open the
newsreader through Outlook (View | Go To | News) or open OE with the
/newsonly switch. This way, all mail functions in OE are disabled anyway,
so there's no chance of using them by mistake.
