web links mail messages do not work

Can you help.
If I click on a web based link in Windows Mail it opens IE7 but it just sits there without loading up the new page.
I have unticked the Security, Block Images option but this does not change things.
I have FireFox set as the default Browser.
Any idea's folks - have others seen this problem ?
Cheers

I think this advice here still applies: http://inetexplorer.mvps.org/archive/answers2.htm#blank_windows

Indeed this was reported now and again by others, many of whom also had Firefox installed. Seems like those URL-file assoziations get corrupted easily.
