Hi,
I use Outlook Express. Sometimes, however, in Control Panel / Internet
Options / Programs it reverts back to Outlook. Anyone have any ideas why
this is happening and how I can stop it from happening?
Many thanks,
Megan
 
I use OE too. I have Office 2003 on my computer. I prefer OE to Outlook. But
like you I found Outlook was interfering with OE, muscling in as you might
say. The only way to stop this (assuming you never want to use Outlook) was
to uninstall Office, then reinstall it. When you reinstall you are given the
option not to activate various programs. So you uncheck Outlook and then
proceed. Problem solved.

Click to expand...

No need to go through that process. Just remove Outlook in Control
Panel-Add/Remove Programs....
