“Locate Link Browser” while Clicking a link in MS Outlook

I know the Flock people said to not use Flock as your default browser, but how am I to truly judge whether or not this is the browser for me?  So I did it!!  I set Flock as my default browser.

The first thing I notice is that Flock opens much more quickly than Firefox did on my system (P4 2.8Ghz, 1G Ram). This IS a VERY good thing.

Secondly, when clicking a link in MS Outlook the link would open up in Flock, but so would a “Locate Link Browser” window searching for an executable.  So, Google then became my friend.  I found the following the tip on a thread at Software Tip and Tricks.com: (slightly edited for clarity)

1. Double-click My Computer.
2. On the Tools menu, then click on Folder Options.
3. Click the File Types tab.
4. Under Extension, locate the “N/A” entry (ed: It may say “NONE”), and then locate the “URL:HyperText Transfer Protocol” entry under File Types.
5. Click the Advanced button in the lower right.
6. Under Actions, click on Open, click the Edit button on the right and UNcheck DDE.  Click OK
7. Next click on “open” then click on Set Default.  Finally, click OK two times
8. Do the same for “URL: HyperText with security”.
