On a XP system, I've set Outlook Express as default e-mail program(internet options->programs->e-mail). But when I do a right-click on a file send to->mail recipient apears a "Microsoft Exchange Setup Wizard" window with two options: Microsoft Mail and Internet e-mail. On my system the Outlook Express is automatically activated. What must I set to do the same thing on the other system ?

Thanks
 
You need admin rights to make the changes stick - do you have them ?

If you are on a domain, a group policy could also be forcing the issue
 
Try this: Start, Run "C:\Program Files\Outlook Express\msimn.exe" /reg, OK
