I am unable to send an email from a web link as there is no program set in
the tools>inet options>programs menu. How do I specify OE, the only one I
use?
I am using IE6, sp2.

How can I fix this? I've searched the knowledge base with no luck.

OE works fine on it's own as does IE.
 
Hi hmmm :-)

Try the following and see if it helps:
Outlook Express missing from the Internet Options mail clients list

Click Start, Run and type the following commands one by one:

MSIMN.EXE /REG

regsvr32 "%ProgramFiles%\Outlook Express\msoe.dll"

This restores Outlook Express under the email clients list. The above-said
registry key is now recreated. The second command registers the DLL Path for
Outlook Express, as it's a requirement for MAPI calls *


Method 2:

Apply the registry fix and follow the solution given in the Microsoft
Knowledgebase article:
OLEXP: Outlook Express Does Not Start from the Mail Button in Internet
Explorer
(Applies to Windows XP as well)


IMPORTANT: Once you completed any of these methods, select Outlook Express
as the default mail client (from Internet Options > Programs tab) and click
Apply.

If these steps do not resolve your problem, or you need help with the above,
please post back to this thread with the details and any error messages.

Hope this helps
