NavigateToURL - no reaction any more ...

I use
- Win 7 x64 as VMware-guest under a Win 7 x64 PC
- Acad 2014
- Opendcl 7.0.1.2

and since these days I have:

Code (autolisp) Select
Command: (dcl_NavigateToURL "http://www.google.com")
T


-> it returns T, but nothing happens: no message, no opening of IE, no opening of the web-page, no crash. I can start IE manually and the web-page too, but not with "dcl_...".

Maybe I botched something with my settings - or is this a known (new?) behaviour?

I just tested and it opens a browser window as expected on my system (Win 7 x64). What happens when you enter the URL in the Start->Run->Open field? Both should do the same thing (and do on my system).

Soory if it sounds stupid, but do you mean into my browser or into Win 7?

Win7 Start menu, then "Run..." at the bottom. That's English Win7, obviously.

Yes, this seem to be the problem. It tells me something like "no program associated with this ...". Something seem to be damaged. I will further investigate.

Thanks for the advice.
