Many thanks jscher2000, problem solved.

Firefox 5.0 Windows 7 Pro. Outlook 2010 Windows Live Mail 2011

In the article, only plugin.disable_full_page_plugin_for_types was present. After resetting then closing Firefox, normal service was resumed.

Links now opening from Outlook 2010 and Windows Live Mail 2011.
