Difficulty Entering Competitions Online
6 Answers
How come I am unable to enter an online competition, eg when given a choice of text, phone or online and nothing happens when I choose to click online saying I'm not set up by default or something? Hope this makes sense!

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.At a guess, you're clicking on a link which goes to the email address of the competition organiser. The way that Windows works is that doing so is designed to open your default email client (such as Outlook Express, Windows Live Mail or Thunderbird) with the recipient's email address, possibly together with the subject of the email, already filled in. If you don't use an email client (because you access your email via a web page instead) it won't work. You need to find out the actual email address and send a mail normally (i.e. without going via the link). You can probably do that by right-clicking on the link, selecting 'Copy email address', creating a new email as you normally would, and then right-clicking in the address bar and selecting 'Paste'.
