| 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.
