Problem with email client

Using Windows Live Mail, or Windows Mail in Vista.
Clicking on email address in IE7 doesnt open the email client, but 42 IE7
window. Make email client default program, nothing. Trying to find some
solution over net, nothing...
Can you help me, what to set, and where to set?

Go to start-> default programs.
As well as setting it to be default program, go to file associations section
and set the program for mailto://

Re: Problem with email client

If you do use Win Live mail, and you drag a message from Win Mail, you're
going to find Win Live Mail takes over the file association if you try to
open a message outside the Win Mail framework/gui. To get it back you'll
have to alter the registry. I didn't see this in any release info.
