HELP! Trying to send a link thru IE6

Question

I'm hoping this is my last question/problem!  I'm on a web page trying to send a link using the little envelope icon on the ie6 toolbar.  When I click on it, then click on send a link or webpage I get a pop up 'Microsoft Exchage Set Up Wizard'.  It has 3 boxes (all checked), Internet email, Microsoft mail and Corelcentral address book.  It then prompts me to provide a path to the post office.  I have NO CLUE what this is talking about.  I only want to send the darn link!!!!  Can anyone help me?  I've check in outlook express and it is set up as my default mail handler if that helps.

I checked mine and it works OK, but I have Outlook 2000 rather than Outlook Express. But, according to the I.E. help file, as long as O.E. is set as the default e-mail program it should work.

If you click Tools/Internet Options then the Programs tab, Outlook Express should be the default e-mail program. If not, that may be your problem. Also go to the Advanced Tab and click the "Restore Defaults" button and then click Apply, this seems to fix a lot of flakey I.E. problems.

Thanks, I checked and it is the default.  I also restored defaults.  This is really irritating me.  How do I get past this wizard asking me for a post office path?
