SYMPTOMS
========

When you click a Web address in a document in a non-browser program such
as an e-mail program, Internet Explorer may not start, and you may receive
the following error message:

Cannot find program.exe needed for opening files of type URL:hypertext

CAUSE

This issue can occur if the "URL:hypertext transfer protocol" file
