advice needed on msn switching my outlook express

[tk]

Hi ,
I just switched on my computer and signed into my Windows live messenger.
I clicked on the "mail icon" to take me to my msn.email box. But to my
surprise instead of being taken to my online email box my Outlook express
keeps opening up and I can't get to my online email account.
I didn't set up /linked up my .....msn.com email account with the microsoft
outlook on my computer (to my knowledge), since I use the outlook with a
different email.
Any ideas on how to fix this problem?
Your help is much appreciated.
Thank you,
Tomas

did you have outlook set as your default email client? When office installs
updates it often sets outlook as default, which causes problems like this.
