My computer crashed about a month ago. Now that I have things set up again I am having trouble trying to send email from a website that lists email addresses for research or help with family history. When I hit the email address, up pops Outlook. I use Yahoo for my email, and it used to come up. I imagine it is very simple, but what am I doing wrong?

Maybe OE is checked as your default.

You has to tell Outlook that it is not the default email client. Grace Bagwell wrote on 9/21/2004, 11:38 PM: > My computer crashed about a month ago.
