Answer
Go to control panel, folder options, file types tab

Scroll down to the  URL:Hypertext Transfer Protocols, click advanced, click edit
and make sure the following is in the application used to perform action box:

”C:\PROGRAM FILES\INTERNET EXPLORER\iexplore.exe” -nohome

The same applies for URL:Gopher

DDE should be set to:  “%1”,,-1,0,,,,
Application should say:  IExplore
DDE application not running should be blank
Topic should be:    WWW_OpenURL

Run each line individually.  
Start – Run then type
regsvr32 Urlmon.dll
regsvr32 Shdocvw.dll
regsvr32 Shell32.dll
regsvr32 Oleaut32.dll
regsvr32 Actxprxy.dll
regsvr32 Mshtml.dll
If this does not work  try System File Checker
Start – Run then type
sfc  /scannow (note the space) have your XP CD handy this time as you may
be prompted for it.
