When I try to right-click an email link pop up asks for application to be opened with-any ideas?
When I want to use an email link given in a document a popup window appears "Link Application send to Yahoo or Googlemail or choose" I want to use Hotmail, my normal email. I can't find where this is on my computer, or is it somewhere in my Firefox settings?

Please do the following.
- Open Internet Explorer, go to Tools, then Internet Options.
- In the menu which appears, click the Programs tab.
- Where you see "Email", choose "Windows Live Hotmail" from the list.
- Click Apply/OK to exit and then close Internet Explorer.
- Open Firefox, click Tools | Options | Advanced.
- In the General tab, checkmark: Always check to see if Firefox is the default browser on startup.
- Click the Check Now button.
- Click OK, OK to exit.
Now when you click on a link in an email, it will launch Hotmail in Firefox.
Many thanks for your help, but it still won't work. I go to I/E, Tools, Internet Options, Programs but Cannot see "Email" listed so I clicked Set programs- 1st option set defaults-but hotmail not listed. 2nd option associate file types-ignored that one. 3rd option change autoplay-ignired that one. 4th option set program access, no hotmail shown. Any ideas?
