Error Message when opening Links in Windows Mail

*-Hello. I have a major problem with Vista Windows Mail. I cannot open
links that friends send me without having to copy them then paste them
on my browser. Everytime I try to open a link I get a red circle with a
white "X" saying "Application not found." I must admit that I am not
that computer literate overall, but I never had this problem with
WindowsXP, either home or pro version. Any suggestions and advice would
be appreciated. Thanks-*

You did not mention which web browser you use, so I will
assume Internet Explorer.

Open the Default Programs applet, 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.
