Can any one help please.

I have recently upgraded from Outlook Express to Outlook
2003 (via Office 2003) and whenever I click on an e-mail
link on a website (Internet Explorer 6.0) I get a message
saying "cannot perform requested operation as mail client
is not the default client or is incorrectly installed".
When this message is cleared approximately 62 blank web
pages come on the screen and freeze up IE 6.0. I have
checked the settings in IE 6.0 and it says the default
client is Outlook, I have also checked the settings in
Outlook which also says that it is the default client. I
have also tried re-installing Outlook all to no avail. Can
anyone out there sort this problem

Thanks

Pam
