I am looking for help with the same problem Learnatic's was having except that I don't have Thunderbird or any other system other than Internet Explorer. I'm on Windows XP and have MS Office 2007 installed.

PROBLEM: No matter who sends me an email I cannot link to any URL's in them. I get a General failure message + application not found. I am using Outlook to manage my AOL email account if that makes a difference. If I open emails directly from AOL I don't have a problem.

I'm not that computer savvy but I know enough to have checked the Tools, Security etc and cannot find anything that will give me access. Help!

Welcome to Geeks2Go!

Try the following fix first (it won't screw up anything even if the problem isn't fixed by it)
