Default Links Don't Work

And this doesn't work / stick?

From:
http://www.fjsmjs.com/OE/nolinks.htm

If nothing happens when you click a link:
Open Windows Explorer.
Go to Tools | Folder Options | File Types.
Scroll down to 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.

order to correct it, I have to go to My Computer Tools Folder
Options
File Types, select URL: HyperText Transfer Protocol (with and without
Privacy), Select Advanced Select Edit and OK out. I don't really have
to
change anything, the values are all correct, I just have to go through
the
Edit process. Then all the links work correctly. Anybody got a clue what
my problem is, or how to fix it?
