outlook 2007 hijacks mail-to links

[Bill]

Although I have Outlook 2007 (ent. ed) loaded, I use Oulook Express-6 as my
email client. Every time to try to activate a mailto link in a message,
Outlook attempts to install itself and take over the task.

Has anyone experienced the same problem, and, short of removing off 07 is
there a solution? (my email preference are allready set to Express)

Any (and EVERY) office update that applies to Outlook has the unfortunate
effect of resetting Outlook as the default email client. Whenever this
happens, you'll need to go back into Default Programs and reset Outlook
Express to be the default.
