Email link uses 64-bit IE7

Hi guys, I've set my Start menu email link to use Windows Live email
instead of Outlook. Problem is, although IE7 32-bit is default on Vista
x64, the email link brings up the 64-bit version. As I always start
surfing the net by checking my email first (habit over yeeeears!) I
always find incompatible websites using Adobe Flash which I have to
reopen in 32-bit IE7. Is there any way to change the email link to use
32-bit IE7 by default?

Any help appreciated, Rajveer.

Start | Default Programs
Make sure the 32-bit version has all the defaults.

So when I go into Default Programs, what then? In "Set Default Programs"
I can choose only "Internet Explorer" which says it has all it's
defaults, and in "Set Program Access and Computer Defaults", under
custom which is selected, it says "Use default Web browser" and "Use
default Email application".
