is Outlook free on new Win7 machines

It is quite a good idea to have more than one web browser. My reason for
saying that is because when accessing a web page, and finding that error
messages, or worse, are generated, the simplest way to find out whether
the page has faults is to try it with another browser. In doing this, it
is sensible to leave the second browser settings as the defaults. If the
second browser works, of course that is a dead giveaway that your browsers
settings will not allow the page to display properly.

If you actually have a look in your Programs File folder you will see a
Windows Mail folder.
C:\Program Files or C:\Program Files (x86)
Although mine didn't run until I simply copied over the same folder from
Vista
Personally I prefer Windows Mail to Window Live Mail
