HTTP links do not work

[Simon Flavelle]

Hi.

I am either referred to my user directory (C:\Documents and
Settings\PsYchOsIs) or nothing happens when I click a web link. Could there
be a cause for this?

Start | Control Panel | Programs | Default Programs
Select "Associate a file type or protocol with a program".
Scroll down to Protocols and double click HTTP and select Internet Explorer.
Do the same for HTTPS.

Thanks, but I am still a little stuck, as there seems to be no item by the
name "Programs", besides the "All Programs" menu. If it helps, I have a
screenshot of my Control Panel
(http://img98.imageshack.us/my.php?image=controlpanelpj8.png) which might
help.

Thanks again, Simon flavelle

Are you asking about Windows Mail in Vista?
What build of Vista?

I am using the Windows Live Mail Desktop Beta on my XP OS.

Sorry, I can't help with that awful program. I try it every once in a while
but find it too clumsy.
But, since you have WinXP and not Vista, is IE7 installed? If so, you will
have to make it the default browser.
