Default web site links in outlook express

I am only able to open web site links in outlook express by installing
another browser. Why was it not possible to open web site links in outlook
express with IE 8
only.

Default web site links in outlook express

[X-Posted to IE General]

I haven't used IE8 as yet myself so I am not sure, but see if it is set as
the default browser.

Control Panel | Add/Remove Programs | Set Program Access and Defaults |
Custom + Down Arrow | Choose a default Web browser. Select the radio button
for Internet Explorer 8.

IE was not the default browser but have discovered the website pages in outlook express will open whichever browser is used. By making IE the default browser I was unable to make this reply so I have reversed IE being the default browser and have made my server the default browser once again.

Probably because you failed to disable your anti-virus application, any
real-time protections afforded any anti-spyware applications, and your
third-party firewall (if any) and then enable the Windows Firewall prior to
installing IE8 & rebooting twice.

Hyperlinks do not work in Outlook Express after you upgrade to IE7 [and IE8]
