I Installed Thunderbird (mozilla firefox) for my business account only, well
it seems to have
taken over my computer, whenever I receive a attachment with outlook express,
Thunderbird is the program that opens up the attachment, this is not the way I
want it set up nor is it the way it worked before installing Thunderbird, also
whenever I click on a *contact me* link it uses Thunderbird and I don't want
it
doing that, I want it back to using my outlook express. I have looked high and
low for a solution and cant find it. under tools and options it doe not give
me
any mail options.

under Tools -> Options -> General -> Default Messaging Programs" In Outlook
Express it says it is my default mail handler, yet whenever there is a
attachment, yet it still opens in Thunderbird

a attachment, it opens in Thunderbird

Try changing the file type association for the particular file type.
