Default Locate Link Browser

I am using IE7 and in the last week have experienced an issue when I try to open a link from a received post in Outlook. I click on the link and an IE page opens, but instead of opening the page that the link refers to, the page stays blank. I close IE and am faced with a box that says
Locate Link Browser I am being asked to find an EXE file?

Something is obviously incorrect, but I can't figure it out.

Hi

Do you have more then one browser installed and\or is IE the default?

Haven't seen that with IE7 and Outlook (haven't recieved an e-mail with a hyperlink yet) but it's asking you to choose a browser to open the link with. When it does that, navigate to IE's executable (Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe) and click OK.

I would imagine there would be an "Always open with" option there as well.

I only have IE7 on this machine. I tried to open the link relating to your reply and it just did the same - opened a browser page with nothing in the address bar, The only way I could open the link was by copying and pasting. It only seems to apply to links in emails (Outlook.)
