Answer» Greetings: I am having a problem sending links through the IE toolbar on my laptop. Every time I try, another window pops up and asks for my loginnpassport user ID and password. The laptop is running XP Professional. I have no problem sending links on my desktop, which is running ME, and goes right to Outlook Express for the link. I have tried resetting the IE defaults, to no avail. Outlook Express is also the default mail handler. Any help that could be offered is greatly appreciated. Thanks, in ADVANCE! Quote am having a problem sending links through the IE toolbar on my laptop. What exactly do you mean? You can not access webpages without it asking for a name and password? Quote What exactly do you mean? You can not access webpages without it asking for a name and password? No... I'm on a webpage, and I want to send a link to the page to SOMEONE in my address book. When I click on the 'Send a Link' radio button, instead of opening up Outlook to send the link, another window opens and tells me "This secure Web Site (at [email protected]) requires me to log on. Please type the user name and password that I use for Microsoft Passport'. Then it takes me to my Hotmail account. However, only the 'Read Mail' radio button opens up my Outlook inbox. All the other options, "New Message, Send a link, and Send Page" all ask for the passport. Again, when I sign in, it opens up the Hotmail E-Mail account. I would much prefer to have Outlook Express handle these tasks... but have no idea how to set them as default. I've tried resetting IE defaults, and Outlook Express does seem to be the default mail handler. I do not use Outlook Express, nor INTERNET Explorer but I can suggest the following: 1. Start 2. Settings 3. Control Panel 4. Software 5. Program Access and Settings See to it that Outlook is set as the default E-mail client.
