default mail client refers to the email program that pops up when you click on email links.

What program do you use for your email and what program do you use to browse the internet?

In internet explorer got to Tools>Internet Options   In the pop up window select the "Programs" tab.  There you can set Hotmail as your email

no i dont think so.
im also got a bullet in "custom" that wont un- bullet [?}.
yeah, i know what im looking for and im NOT finding it.
 i, also getting crap trying to open up emailed microsoft files. things like finacial spread sheets and such. one thing ive run into already is that the computer doesnt want to recognize certain programs for sending files.
 i have tyo be careful since i know just enough to get myself in trouble here even though i backed it up to disc with no prob. windows 7 makes ome things pretty easy.

Do you have Microsoft Office on the new computer with Excel?  If you don't you might want to down load open office, which is free.  As for your other issue, I am at a loss.  You might look around here for an answer though
