Outlook took over and kicked out OE

[Smed]

lost my hard drive... had it all backed up on an external so i have all my
files but now im chasing around ghosts and tweaking my settings...

i like Outlook Express for my email and non-binary newsgroups... i installed
Office and forgot to uncheck the installation of Outlook... Outlook took
over as my email program... i uninstalled Outlook but now i cant make OE my
default email program...

this is what i have tried...

Control Panel -> Internet Options -> Programs tab... in the pull down next
to the EMAIL option, only Outlook is listed... i found OE and when i double
click it my email opens no problem... BUT if i try to click on an email link
(like (e-mail address removed)) my computer cant figure out to open a new message using
OE...

chasing ghosts.... does anyone have any thoughts on why OE isn't listed as a
default email program??
