I have downloaded firefox browser for Win XP. I have a default mail program on my computer. I have checked and firefox recognizes it as default. How can I access it from the browser and can I set a bookmark? for quick access. Thanks

  1. Right click the Internet Explorer icon on your desktop and go to Properties.

  2. Click the Programs tab and make sure it says "Outlook Express" in the Email menu.

  3. Close that and then in Firefox, press the ALT key to toggle the text menu links on (and off).

  4. Click File and then "Send Link".

It should open OE with the link to whatever page you're on.
