Windows Live email
when I get my email and try to open links (not attachments), I get a message:
This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action. Look in the folder options in the control panel. When I go to the folder options I haven't got a clue what they are talking about. Does anyone have this problem and is there a way to fix it so I can open links in email pages? Thanks..
