Default OL 2007 Adding Windows Live Mail news only

Anyway to get a call in Outlook for Windows Live Mail in news only mode for
Windows 7? When I customize a toolbar button to add a link for WLM as
"C:\Program Files\Windows Live\Mail\wlmail.exe" /news it reverts the forward
slash to a back slash and errors out saying the link is bad.

Thx

Navigation.
