sp2 and outlook express.

after downloading the sp2 i have a problem when browsing
websites and trying to email people through outlook
express. when i click on an email address on a website i
get a message stating: "could not perform this operation
because the default mail client is not properly
installed." i have checked my email default settings and
it is set right. has anybody come across this and is
there a solution?

Go to Start, select Run
Type in: regsvr32 urlmon.dll.

Now open IE

Select Tools from the Menu, select: Internet Options, select Programs, Reset Web
Settings.

To make Outlook Express as the default mail client
Go to Start, select Run
Type in: msimn.exe /reg

For further information:

If that doesn't help then try the OE6-specific newsgroup:
