x64 Vista Ultimate Default email selection

[Solace]

I recently installed Vista ultimate Vlited down and noticed theres no option to set the default email program. after downloading a tool called RegisterHotmail.exe i managed to create the hotmail into the default program area. allthough when i click on the shortcut it tells me it may have been moved renamed etc... and asks if i want to remove the icon instead of opening hot mail in either firefox or ie7. I believe its just not opening the shortcut link and i would liek to know if im missing a registry setting somewhere for the shortcut needs to be put in place somewhere.

download windows live mail. it's the update to windows mail included in vista and it's much better.

Surely you had WINMAIL in the install of Vosta?

no i do not believe i kept anything to do with that new mail client. considering all im trying to accomplish is a shortcut in startmenu to www.hotmail.com why would i need anything more then a simple reg entry and the file located somewhere...

installing windows live mail works fine but i STILL CANNOT get it to HOTMAIL. I DONT WANT WINDOWS LIVE MAIL just a simple shortcut in startmenu section.

no one can tell me what files/registry entries are needed to make this work? i have the registry entries in place with the hotmail register program but it tells me the file is missing still so theres a shorcut somewhere missing for this to work. not sure what and where...
