Hyperlinks failing to open in browser

Hello!

PM (4.72) worked without flaws with regard to opening hyperlinks in my (system-)standard web-browser until recently.

I decided to install another instance of my preferred web-browser (opera 12.18) in a separate location and wanted it to become the new standard browser.


The first thing I did was to tell the new installment that it is from now  on the default browser system-wide.

This works as expected for example from within windows explorer (entering e.g. www.google.at in the adress-bar) and also from some but not all programs.


Question A: Why is it that some programs do not realize that the program responsible for htttp:.... has changed? How can I solve this?

PM is among them, but shows a strange behavior compared to the other programs which still open the "old" standard browser.

PM now for some strange reason opens  windows explorer with my personal home-directory focused ... 


Question B: What can I do to resolve this problem within Pegasus Mail?

I already changed the setup in PM insofar as I directed PM to use the browser at a certain location (there is an option to enter the path). But the result is the same.

In other words, from the point I changed my standard browser PM is unable to open hyperlinks, it opens my user/homedirectory in windows explorer, no matter whether it is directed to use os' setup or whether it uses the complete path given.

 

Edit: OS is Windows XP
