IMO, Outlook Express is a scaled down version of the full program Outlook 
which has more features.  

Occassionally, I've noticed that a small pop-up window that will ask if you 
want to use Outlook, or Outlook Express or other program as the default email 
program.  Since the names resemble each other so closely you have to be 
careful to choose the right one.

If you don't like either you can download a free email program, Thunderbird 
by Mozilla (same company that made Firefox browser).

See if this is the problem:

Internet Explorer Window
TOOLS
> INTERNET OPTIONS
>> PROGRAMS (tab)

Check the E-mail default program setting..... If it is set to Microsofft 
Office Outlook, use the drop down menu and switch it back to Express.

Subject: [Homestead] Computer Whiz Test <g>

I have Outlook Express for my e-mail stuff.  I *had* Outlook Express last 
night when I turned the computer off.  This morning I had Microsoft Office 
Outlook 2003!  Ah, what the hay?

Any thoughts on not having this happen again and how the heck did it happen?

Office is the "full version" and Outlook is usually paired with that.

Works is the scaled down version with Outlook Express paired with that

How on earth did you get both installed on your computer?  That is pretty 
odd............


If you are a power user of spreadsheets, like me, you'll never go back to 
Work's version of a spreadsheet.  Is someone else besides you using your 
computer?  If so find out if they installed MS Office for a reason.

Googling....

Otto is an audio jukebox program
Orbit , not Orbital, looks like a music downloading program
Orbital, another program, I can't get the website on it to open
Polar Bowler, Slyder and Overball, games

O.K., I'm trying to get rid of junk on the computer.  Is there any reason I 
need Microsoft Works 7 or the mystery program that seems to have appeared, 
Microsoft Office Standard Edition 2003?

And what about those goofy things Compaq put on the computer, Orbital, Otto, 
Polar Bowler, Slyder and Overball?

Haven't a clue how all this stuff ended up on this computer.  I don't use
anything MS.  I use WordPerfect with Quatro Pro and Presentations.
Word/Words is soooo limited.
