Thanks in advance.

Go to View | Folder Options | File Types in Windows Explorer and check the
values for URL:Hypertext Transfer Protocol (click edit, open, edit). The
values should read:
application:

"C:\PROGRAM FILES\INTERNET EXPLORER\iexplore.exe" -nohome
(Check the path to iexplore.exe to make sure that is correct)

DDE should be checked and in the boxes below it you should have:

#1:
"%1",,-1,0,,,,
#2
IExplore
#3 (blank)

#4
WWW_OpenURL

NOTE: The above applies to Win9x. For WinMe, Win2000, and WinXP, use Tools |
Folder Options or Control Panel | Folder Options to access the file types.
Then edit the OPEN action for the file type. The actual values specified
above are the same for each Operating System.

If you find that the above process is set correctly, and you still have
problems, then go to Start | Run and type

regsvr32 urlmon.dll

and see if that fixes the problem.
