hotmail/windows live compatibility and windows mail

[Steve]

I use Hotmail for email, and when I switched to Windows Vista and wanted to
send email from within a running program eg. sending photos to friends, Vista
says it no longer supports Hotmail or other http based mail programs. The
solution, they posted, was to install Windows Live Mail, which I have done.
However, the problem persists. The email program I get when trying to send
mail from within another program is Windows Mail, which I do not use. Any
suggestions as to how I can overcome this issue? Thanks

Make sure your preferred email program has all its defaults assigned.
Open the Default Programs applet, which you can access either from
the Start menu or via the Control Panel, then click the first item:
"Set your default programs."
After a few seconds, a list of programs comes up. Click on Windows
Live Mail. If it doesn't respond with "This program has all its defaults"
then fix it by clicking on the option indicated by the first green arrow.
