With Mozilla Firefox, I cannot go to "File" and then "Send Link" so as to pull up an email ready to send via Outlook Express, as I can with Internet Explorer - how do I change the settings to permit this?

If I am using Explorer, I can go to "File" and then "Send Link" - an email will automaticallt pop up, with the website url pasted in; I merely put in the recipents email address, hit Send, and away it goes With Firefox, the email does not pop up; I have to manually pull up an email ("create mail"), then copy and paste the website url displayed by Firefox I want to override this default to Explorer

Hi,

Please try this: Tools (or Alt + T) > Options > Applications. Look for or start typing mailto in the search box and for the Action change it to the desired mail client (the application that opens up in Explorer) if the value is different.
