This is more a Operating System question than a Org-mode question, however: In GNU/Linux (OS x ?? Carsten???? ) systems you have to check your mailcap settings, search the files: : /etc/mailcap : : or : : $HOME/.mailcap and modify them accordingly. Please read their manual entry. For Windows systems + for html pages you may configure the =browse-url-= variables through the Customize interface, + the pdf files are automatically opened with Acrobat Reader (if it is installed)
