After updating to 3.6.10 links in Outlook 2007 no longer open - "An error occurred in sending the command to the application"

more options

After updating to Firefox 3.6.10 this morning, Outlook 2007 can no longer open up links embedded in emails. Normally when you clicked a link it would open up Firefox and send you to the website, but when you click on any link it now says:


General failure. The URL was: [url here] An error occurred in sending the command to the application.


I don't know what happened. I didn't change any other settings on the computer.

I am running Windows 7 64 Professional, MS Outlook 2007 with latest updates, and Firefox 3.6.10
