Send Link By Email brings up Outlook Setup Wizard

Windows XP, IE6, Outlook Expres

Firstly I know what broke this: I installed Office 97 on XP, and forgot to exclude MS Outlook, it then completely took over as my email client. So I used Add/Remove Programs to get rid of this, but no, it wont completely remove Outlook (nothing seems to), and it won't restore my defaults. So I manually (i.e. go in the registry) restore Outlook Express as my default mail client, and finally I get it working all round, except File, Send To. Now I've fixed the URLMailTo in File Types, so that if I run MailTo:[email protected], it will correctly open OE and create a blank email to the addressee.

But if I'm in IE, and I want to forward a link, it just come up with the Microsoft Outlook choose a Profile wizard.
