TB 2.0.0.12 under XP Home
This has me puzzled. If I highlight a jpg when I'm in Windows Explorer
and click on "E-Mail this file", usually a new COMPOSE pane comes up
in
TB, with my selected jpg already attached.
Suddenly today, doing this action opens a COMPOSE pane in MS OUTLOOK,
not TB.
TB is selected as Default E-Mail Program.
On my other two lap-top machines (one XP, one Vista), the "E-Mail this
file" brigs up a TB window, as expected.
But on this desktop pc, today Outlook seems to be default, but *only*
for e-mailing jpgs! Of course, I can email them via TB by using the TB
ATTACH option. But why have I suddenly lost the ability to send a jpg
I'm looking at in Windows Explorer via TB?

Y'know, with Windows, MS is the real owner of your computer. MS just
noticed you were trying to use a non-MS email client, and took
corrective measures. On your behalf, of course -- MS is only thinking
about what's good for the renter. :)

Heh. I doubt that it's possible for me (or any of us) to think of a
nefarious scheme that MS hasn't already considered and/or implemented. :)
