default mail client not properly installed

When clicking on their email address of the contacts page for any WEB site, I
get an error message "Could not perform this operation because the default
mail client is not properly installed".

Microsoft outlook is installed and working OK, I have set it as the default
mail client on Internet explorer 7 under the tools option.

Any help please
Thanks
Bill

Tried repairing the Microsoft Office install/reinstalling?

Re: default mail client not properly installed

Did you install Windows Live Mail and then decide against using it?
