#281700 - 19/05/2006 16:28 Thunderbird issue
tahir pooh-bah Registered: 27/02/2004 Posts: 1900 Loc: London	I've just changed back from SeaMonkey to TB & FF, unfortunately I can't set Thunderbird as the default mail client, when I try to do so it errors saying that it can't modify the necessary registry entry. Any ideas anyone?

Are you running some sort of software that prevents changes to the system registry, such as aniti-spyware or something? Alternatively, open up Internet Explorer, go to Tools, Internet Options, Programs, and set the default mail client there. _________________________ Tony Fabris

I'm thinking that maybe I should organise another London mini-meet. The last one went pretty well, despite my lack of actual organisational skills. Maybe I'll leave it until after the wedding, though... _________________________ -- roger
