Email not working when called from IE or a directory file

H

Howard M. Rensin

When I right click on a file in a directory (such as a photo) I get a
menu that includes 'Send to' and an option to 'Mail recipient'. When I click
on that it used to launch an email composition window from Outlook and the
file is an attachment. For some reason, that function has stopped working. I
checked my Outlook preferences and the box designating Outlook as the
default email client is checked. I am using Outlook 2003 SP1 and this
problem has just started in the last week. My OS is XP Home 5.1.2600.
In addition, if I am using Internet Explorer (IE) and try to email a
page using Tools/Mail & News/Send Page the composition window with the IE
page does not show up. It had been doing every thing just fine until I
upgraded to the latest security fix. Apparently some setting somewhere has
been changed. I have already tried Detect & Repair and it fixed the problem
until I later rebooted and now the problem has returned.
Any help on fixing this would be appreciated.
Howard
