Default Clicking "Send to" in Word invokes Outlook, not my default email client

Hi,

I'm running MS Office 2003/SP1. I use OE and FireFox as email clients, the
latter as the default. However, when I click "send to" in a Word session,
Word invokes Outlook.

Has anyone got an off-hand solution to this faulty set-up?

Thanks in advance.
