Clicking on an email does not open outlook anymore...

[Kompu Kid <deguza@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello All:

I used to be able to click on an email in MS Word and it would open
Outlook with the email inserted into the "To:" line.

I am not able to do this anymore. It is bringing up .net passport etc.
stuff.

I looked at the default mail application under IE Explorer options, it
is still Outlook. Could not find a setting under MS Word.

Curious enough, I usually use Flock for internet browsing, and
clicking on emails there does bring up Outlook.

What do I change to have Outlook start automatically?

Thanks for all suggestions ahead of time!
