Until I installed version 3.6.6 on my XP system I would bring up Outlook Express to send a link by mail. Now, selecting "send link" brings up MS Outlook Office which is not my e-mail default.

Prior to installing 3.6.6 on my MS XP system, when I click on FILE & SEND LINK, instead of getting my mail system OUTLOOK EXPRESS, I get OFFICE OUTLOOK which is on my computer but I have never used it for this. I cannot locate a setting to change this so far. Thank you. C.F. Boykin-

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

== I installed the present Firefox 3.6.6
