Answers:
If you're using WLM(windows live messenger) there isn't a way to open the links/emails to open with your default browser(however you can try what i post below). But if you're still stuck on MSN then the stuff which i post below might help:
You can try this by using the messenger plus and stuffplug extension with MSN. But with WLM there doesn't seem a way.
However, you can try if you want to. First off, install the messenger plus live extension ( http://www.msgpluslive.net/ ) for your WLM/MSN, now get the stuffplug extension from http://www.stuffplug.com/
Once you have both the add-ons installed, restart WLM/MSN. Now with FF (Firefox) your default browser, see if launching the links will open in FF. If not, then click plus menu -> preferences -> plugins -> stuffplug -> configure . Here you'll find the option.
If this doesn't work, then i'm sorry there's no way you can go about it.
MSN is part of Microsoft, and so is Internet Explorer. It makes perfect sense that it doesn't work, because Microsoft wants you to use MSN Messenger with Internet Explorer and Vista and such, but I just don't know if you can fix it.
