Nice review, I'm really glad they didn't do tabs on top, which the number one reason, I refuse to use chrome, I absolute hate it. with firefox im using a theme that makes it look like office 2010, it's gonna be hard to change though....

Thanks Murkurie.

RoMee, I tried it, and it's working fine for me. If I click on an email from IE9, without windows live mail open, it opens the program minimally, and creates a new email with that address. By that I mean it creates only the new email window, it doesn't bring up my inbox and everything. If its already open, it just creates the new email. No crashing. It's possible they might have updated WL Mail to work with IE9 and you're using an outdated version. Then again maybe not, check what version you have from Help>About. Mine is version 14.0.8117.0416. If thats your version, I dunno why its not working for you. Maybe try reinstalling Mail. It could also be a bug thats different between 64 and 32 bit versions, if you're using 32 bit.

Edit:

Another thing you might want to check, in Control Panel\Programs\Default Programs, make sure all 4 default options for WL Mail are checked.

mine is a little different from your
mine is like 2009 (14XXX)
and I'm using 64 bit

By that I mean it creates only the new email window, it doesn't bring up my inbox and everything

after the update mine don't do that anymore, I mean it does but than it says it stop working..

Sucks, maybe for now your only solution is to copy/paste the emails, or switch back browsers until the release is final.

Time to load Gbatemp;
Chrome canary: 5 seconds from start page, 2 seconds to refresh
IE9 Beta: 5 seconds from MSN home page, 4 seconds to refresh
Meh, Chrome starts a lot quicker, but once IE9 gets going it becomes very fast.
Personally I'll stick with chrome 'cause it's from google
