just about the time I got Vista all figured out I end up w/ a new laptop w/ windows 7
any one know how to set up the default e mail program so I can access e mail option from web sites???

geez guys 2 and a half months and no one...????

Go into Control Panel, on the top right where it says "Viiew By: Categories" change that to "View By: Large Icons". You will now see an Email icon, click that and you can setup/change email accounts.
