When I am visiting a web site and click a link to email directly from the web site, instead of popping up a New email screen so that I can email, I get the message "Cannot find Program.exe". I understand that this just means that it does not know what program to associate with this, but I do not know how to rectify the problem. I am running W98, Outlook Express 5, IE 5.

Thank you and I appreciate any help....

In IE go to the Tools menu, then Internet Options, go to the Programs tab and be sure you have Outlook Express as the EMAIL program. If not, then choose Outlook Express.

Thanks for the response. This setting was already correct. Someone just recommended that I reinstall Outlook Express. I did and all is fine.

Thanks again for the response....
