Opening links in mail message fails
If I try to open a valid link that is in a Windows Mail message, it always
fails with Windows cannot find message. If I cut/paste the link to Internet
Explorer it will open OK. Is there a configuration change to correct this
issse. Thanks.

Re: Opening links in mail message fails
Go to Default Programs, which you can access either from the Start menu
or via the Control Panel, then click the first item: "Set your default programs."
After a few seconds a list of programs comes up. Click on Internet Explorer.
If it doesn't respond with "This program has all its defaults" then fix it by
clicking on the option indicated by the first green arrow.
