Anyone know how I stop Outlook opening in Messenger? On my desktop pc (which has Outlook installed) when I click on the Messenger icon and select 'My E Mail Inbox', windows opens Hotmail, which is what I want. The same procedure on my laptop opens Outlook. How do I set it to open Hotmail as occurs on my desktop? In 'defaults' both computers are set to 'use my current email programme'. Any ideas welcome!

There are only 2 options. 'My current email programme', and 'Outlook'. As said, both my pc's seem to be set the same...

Think you need to look here...

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\mailto\shell\o pen\command

Always backup the reg key before messing
