Can't Send Link in IE7
After installing SP3 I can't send a Web Site Link or Page. This is the only
glitch since installeing SP3 In IE7/Internet Options/Programs there is no program listed for Email. The only choice in the drop down is Windows Live Mail, what ever that is. Outlook Express is selected as Default in OLE. My other Dell Computer with SP2/IE7 Outlook Express is listed for Email in IE7/Internet Options/Progreams and works ok. And OLE is shown in the drop down. I have reinstalled IE7 and OLE but no help. Need help on this one ! Thanks Fred |

Can't Send Link in IE7
In IE7/Internet Options/Programs there is no program listed for Email. The
only choice in the drop down is Windows Live Mail, what ever that is. You probably installed Windows Live Mail (http://download.live.com/wlmail) when you installed, e.g., Windows Live Messenger or Windows Live Toolbar using the Windows Live Essentials "all-in-one" installer and accepted the default of installing all of the Windows Live applications (i.e., Windows Live Messenger, Mail, Toolbar, Writer, Family Safety, Photo Gallery, and Movie Maker beta). [X-post to OE General] When you install Windows Live Mail, your OE data is automatically imported into it, several OE shortcuts are deleted, and it becomes your default Mail Client.

Can't Send Link in IE7
The date and time was Tuesday, January 27, 2009 11:57:18 AM, and on a
whim, Fred pounded out on the keyboard: After installing SP3 I can't send a Web Site Link or Page. This is the only glitch since installeing SP3 In IE7/Internet Options/Programs there is no program listed for Email. The only choice in the drop down is Windows Live Mail, what ever that is.

And OLE is shown in the drop down. I have reinstalled IE7 and OLE but no help. Need help on this one ! Thanks Fred Hi Fred, I'm not around a workstation that has IE7 installed, but you should be able to click on the icon at the far left of the address bar and drag it to an open mail window (or anywhere for that matter). Using IE6 and Mozilla Thunderbird, I just dragged the "e" icon onto this window and let go: http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com/ It should work the same in IE7. Also check your "Set Program Access and Defaults" to set your mail client. You could uninstall IE7 and go back to IE6 (although IE7 should work also), but if SP3 was installed after IE7, you'd have to uninstall SP3 and then uninstall IE7, then reapply SP3.

Well, /someone/ installed Windows Live Mail using the Windows Live
Essentials installer (which does not include SP3 or IE7), Fred. Is Window Live Mail and/or anything else named Windows Live (still) listed in Add/Remove Programs?

Nope, Windows Live not listed in A/R Programs. I remember some time ago long before installing SP3 that I install Windows Live for some reason and then removed it. Think it was to try it before installing it on my wife's Dell. She uses it. Funny this glitch cam up on my Dell after SP3. Oh well all seems to work great now. BTW installed SP3 in Safe Mode. I install programs in SM when I can. Think I'll do a C:\ search for Windows Live. Fred -- "A government big enough to give you everything you want, is strong enough to take everything you have."
