iTunes Store E-Mail Verification

[Norfag]

Okey, I just got myself a iPod Touch 32GB 2nd Gen, and wanted to get some Apps.

The problem is that after I created an account I get this weird link that wants me to open iTunes.
So, I use Firefox, and get this message that I have to add the "link type" to a program, iTunes is in the list, but it wont allow me to use it, so I browse after the .EXE file to iTunes, and use that. Now, iTunes only loads up, but nothing happend.

I tried the link in IE, it only rederects me too Download iTunes site.
And I even tried downloading Safari (Which I knew would fail) and it told me that it couldn't open the link....

Safari can’t open the specified address.
Safari can’t open “itmss://buy.itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZFinance.woa/wa/verifyAccountEmail?evcode=VTFMYK7FATL4Fhttps://buy.itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZFinance.woa/wa/verifyAccountEmail?evcode=VTFMYK7FATL4F&ign-mscache=1” because Microsoft Windows doesn’t recognize Internet addresses starting with “itmss:”.

So...
What to do?
I can't even log on the Apple Support Forums, because I don't have a verified account.
Halp!

I have the exact same issue with a small exception:

Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (itmss) isn't associated with any program.

Apparently it's having the same issue with Windows Vista. I'm hoping whatever solves the problem for the op will help me as well.

My guess is a misspelled URL in the HTML code. I am not familiar enough with HTML to guess any correction yet, but I'll keep looking.

I found the answer in several simple registry edits, complicated by a convoluted permission unlocking procedure.

This worked in solving the issue for me, and I got my account activation.
