I always have to specify to open with Internet Explorer or other programs

Original title: A link can not remember which program to start

I have a machine with Vista and and when I get an email with a link to the internet - a PDF file, a site, or something else, I can't just click on the link - a dialog box appears and I have to specify witch program to start with - I don't then tap Internet Explorer and check the "Allways" and click on OK - but next time I have to once again!

I tried right click and use 'Open with' and still tick "Allways" - but same result!

How can I make the program witch visit remember to use in the future?

I don't know what Outlook Express - 110%!

It's a computer for my aunt and I distance control - me, he looked like initially to Vista, but need XP then.

But the problem is that he doesn't remember witch program to start when you click on a link - not only in a mail, but on the desktop too!

I tried to use 'Open with' and point to IE and checked "Always", but the next time she click it asks new witch program to start.

We had been going round in circles in 2 different threads. It all comes down to confusion about which operating system and subsequently e-mail you what program use.

If it's XP you use with Outlook Express e-mail program, please transfer to the XP forum.
