Can't Initially Open Link in Mail

When clicking on a link in Windows Mail, using IE8, I get a message stating that Windows cannot open the link. It says to check the address or something to that effect. The addresses are valid. If I click a second time with IE up, IE successfully presents the page. Thanks for any help/info.

Welcome
I think that a problem of that nature will not be easily solved. If it never opened, I would have a number of suggestions. For now, I think it may be a problem with Explorer and not Windows Mail, which you should update to Windows Live Mail 2011 and IE8 should be updated to IE9.
Although the problem is not the same as in this tutorial, following the suggestions may help you.

Rich is right as he had me do it a while back and it worked great and made my IE8 run a whole lot better...LOL
