Default Make Outlook express my default messaging program to use OE

I cannot connect with Outlook Express from an internet article, etc. In the
Tools menu, under General Tab the Default Messaging program items are grayed
out. How can I correct that?

What program are you connecting to?

Control Panel | Add/Remove Programs | Set Program Access and Defaults |
Custom + Down Arrow | Select the radio button for Outlook Express.

Always state your IE version and your full Windows version (e.g., WinXP SP3;
Vista SP1) when posting to this newsgroup, please.
