Windows don't email not able to click on a link successfully?

I use Windows live mail for ages OK all of a sudden when I get an email with a link (URL) to a website I get a box indicating

""This file has no program associated with it for performing this action. " Please install a program, or if it is already installed, create an association in the default programs control panel. » »

So I downloaded Windows Essentials, which I think is out of date, but I still get the same message (above) when I click on a web address that comes in an email?

Any body can help?
