For anyone who is interested, I finally found in another thread the following
recomendation, which, when I did as suggested, fixed my problem. The
recommendation was: "....modify the Windows
Folder Options for the "URL:HyperText Transfer Protocol" and "URL:HyperText
Transfer Protocol with Privacy" File Types to open the browser you want...."
In my case, possibly because of an update, what I found was that my
IEXPLORE.exe target had changed. When I reestablished the proper target
file, all was fixed.
