Default Email hyperlinks will not open

You're welcome. Mozilla tends to leave a few crumbs around even after it's
deleted.

Thank you Bruce Hagen. I applied exactly what you sent. Found I had
Mozilla
remanents in those fields, as I had recently deleted that download from my
computer. Now all my hyperlinks will open... Thanks again for the
accurate
and rapid response.

If using IE7:

Control Panel | Add/Remove Programs | Set Program Access and Defaults |
Browser: IE /must/ be chosen here if you're running IE7 and want such

to work.

For IE6 & 7, If still no joy:

From:

If nothing happens when you click a link:
Open Windows Explorer, or the Control Panel.
Go to Tools | Folder Options | File Types.
Scroll down to [NONE] URL:HyperText Transfer Protocol (NOT URL:Internet
Shortcut) and select it.
Click Edit or Advanced, depending on your Windows version.
Select 'open'.
Click Edit.

"Application used to perform this action" should read:

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

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

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

#4
WWW_OpenURL

URL:HyperText Transfer Protocol with Privacy should be the same.

Sometimes it is necessary to uncheck Use DDE.

Recently any email messages I receive that include hyperlinks, the
links
will
not open. Something is blocking their opening. Using Panda Platinium
