Default Cannot open Microsoft Outlook from the Internet

I have Office XP, Version 2002 with MS Outlook 2002, and Service Pack 3.
While on the internet when clicking on an embedded address which requires
opening my e-mail account a message appears saying "..can not start..". My
Tools, Options, Internet Connections shows Microsoft Outlook as the e-mail
account. I recently loaded a Windows 98 program that was supposed to be XP
compatible. I have since removed the program and have had to make several
adjustments to my setups. This may be one of them, but I have not been able
to correct it.

Default Cannot open Microsoft Outlook from the Internet

can you open it using the shortcut on the start menu? Does the 'cannot
start' message say anything else?

Yes, I am able to open MS 2002 through all my shortcuts on the display and/or
menu bars. The exact message I receive when on the Internet is: "Cannot start
Microsoft Outlook. Can't create the item." I have also tried this from my
ISP's website and get the same response.
