Default can't make outlook express default email app when send page by email

When I use IE 6 and want to send page by email. It launches thunderbird. I
have chosen outlook express in tool options applications settings. I even
switched it to thunderbird then back again to outlook express. nothing
happens. Its as if it is ignoring this setting. Although when i click on
an email address in explorer outlook express opens fine. can't figure it
out. please help.


thanks.

this is on a machine running ie6 and outlook express 6 and sp2 with all
updates.
