PPT Viewer, Win Mail, Associations

A friend installed the Powerpoint viewer. He's still having problems
with the file association throwing an error when doubling clicking in
Windows Mail. I seem to recall that there was a specific Vista Bug/Fix
in this area. Any pointers?

Thanks,

When you ask a question on USENET, please do not use the No
Archive switch. Other people might be looking for the same
information in the USENET archive, and they need to see the
question in order to make sense of the answers.

Thanks.
