it didn't work. Around the first of September 2011, I inadvertently downloaded Google chrome, by attempting to load Google earth, because the Google earth execution icon disappeared from my desktop. I removed the Google chrome program from my pc. and some time after i noticed i wasn't able to open links in my email. as far as setting outlook as default, i don't know, i didn't get confirmation.

Ok thank you that makes sense. Chrome can actually leave behind registry entries that make email clients try and open hyperlinks in chrome rather than internet explorer even though chrome is no longer there. Try this and see if it helps.
Right click on this link and click on save as: Right click here Save it to your desktop. Then once it is saved double click on the icon on your desktop named chromehtml.reg. Windows will ask you if you want to allow it to make changes choose yes. Now restart your computer.
