    Hello Ron, and welcome to Vista Forums.

    Double check to make sure that Internet Explorer is set as the default program with all of it's associations (specifically: URL) set to in Default Programs.

    Hope this helps,
    Shawn

    Shawn, thanks so much for helping me wth the hyperlinks not working in Window Mail and also as shortcuts. HTTP, FTP, HTTPS had no associated program and when I associated them with Internet Explorer in Default Settings everything worked perfectly. THANKS again. RON
