URL opening to Internet Explorer

[Guest]

When I am on AIM, and someone sends me a link in an IM, and i click on it, it
sends me to AOL and makes me sign on in order to open the link on AOL. I
cannot always sign on AOL so i would like to know if the link my friend sends
me can just open into internet expolorer...no one can help me. If you have
any idea on how to fix this, please e-mail (e-mail address removed) thank
you.

Set IE as the default browser:

Open Internet Explorer > Tools > Options > Programs and enable the option:
"Internet Explorer should check to see whether it is the default browser"
Close IE and open again. Click YES if you are prompted to set it as default
browser.
