I have noticed that when I clik on a contact me by email link in the Muggers customized sites I have been to....something weird happens.....instead of going to a fill in the blank page or opening a page with email info.....I all of a sudden get an IE Att/yahoo sign in page to an old yahoo account.....now I have not used IE for over 2.5 yrs....it is not my default browser (even states so whn I went to IE and looked in internet options......FF is my default browser......I am not understanding this.
I am sure it has to be in my settings somewhere but where.
Any help will be immensely appreciated as this is driving me nuts and I do not want this to happen to others when I get my site customized in the future....

Thanx

    that's configured in your browser - what email client is launched when you click such a link.

    No Change After Changes Except....
    i have double, triple and quadruple checked all my internet options and IE is not my default browser....yahoo is not my mail client.....However it still opens what ever is in that mail client box and bloody MS doesn't give a friggin NONE as an option.....this sucks because this only happens on SM.....no where else.........I have been up all night trying to get a 170mb photo downloaded from a restoration company and dealing with this while photo downloaded.....I'll sleep later maybe.....hopefully.....surely this is not a SM bug.....Oh I just tried it on Jeffreaux2 contact page and left it open hated to do that to him but my message was sort of an explanation......let me see how andy's contact works.....now

    I don't understand either - the email links are not part of SmugMug. Where is a specific, direct link to a page where you are experiencing this, Art?

    Hello Art... when you click on an email link like on my website, here:

    http://www.moonriverphotography.com/gallery/729385

    It will launch the email client you have set up on your computer and your browser.
