Can anyone tell me what to change to make a hyperlink on an email open up Explorer rather then AOL? The system wants to use a dial up connection rather then the LAN connection that's available.

You should be able to do it by using one of the 2 following options.

1) File Types.

Open My Computer

Click on Tools > Folder Options > File Types

Scroll Down to HTML Document (There should be 2 of them)

Click on the Change button and select Internet Explorer.

2) Default Browser

In Control Panel, double-click Internet Options.

On the Programs tab, click to select the Internet Explorer should check to see whether it is the default browser check box, and then click OK.

Open Internet Explorer, and then click Yes when you are prompted to make it the default browser.
