Discovery click on URL in RichEdit

I am trying to update RichEdit so that it detects the url and turns it on to open it in a browser. Finding a url is easy, I just use the following code from http://www.scalabium.com/faq/dct0146.htm

mask := SendMessage(MNote.Handle, EM_GETEVENTMASK, 0, 0);
  SendMessage(MNote.Handle, EM_SETEVENTMASK, 0, mask or ENM_LINK);
  SendMessage(MNote.Handle, EM_AUTOURLDETECT, Integer(True), 0);

but the second part does not work for me. They provide the following code to capture the EN_LINK message and process it:

type
  TForm1 = class(TForm)
  protected
    procedure WndProc(var Message: TMessage); override;
  end;
...

procedure TForm1.WndProc(var Message: TMessage);
var
  p: TENLink;
  strURL: string;
begin
  if (Message.Msg = WM_NOTIFY) then
  begin
    if (PNMHDR(Message.LParam).code = EN_LINK) then
    begin
      p := TENLink(Pointer(TWMNotify(Message).NMHdr)^);
      if (p.msg = WM_LBUTTONDOWN) then
      begin
        SendMessage(RichEdit1.Handle, EM_EXSETSEL, 0, LongInt(@(p.chrg)));
        strURL := RichEdit1.SelText;
        ShellExecute(Handle, 'open', PChar(strURL), 0, 0, SW_SHOWNORMAL);
      end
    end
  end;

  inherited;
end;

When I run the program, the URL is detected, but clicking on it does nothing. Using debug, I found that Message.Msg = WM_NOTIFY is not valid when I click on the URL. Then I tried to override TRichEdit WndProc, but the result is the same. Any suggestions?

RichEdit WindowProc CN_NOTIFY, :

type
  TForm1 = class(TForm)
    RichEdit1: TRichEdit;
    procedure FormCreate(Sender: TObject);
  private
    PrevRichEditWndProc: TWndMethod;
    procedure RichEditWndProc(var Message: TMessage);
    procedure SetRichEditMasks;
  end; 

procedure TForm1.FormCreate(Sender: TObject);
begin
  PrevRichEditWndProc := RichEdit1.WindowProc;
  RichEdit1.WindowProc := RichEditWndProc;
  SetRichEditMasks;
end;

procedure TForm1.SetRichEditMasks;
var
  mask: Longint;
begin
  mask := SendMessage(RichEdit1.Handle, EM_GETEVENTMASK, 0, 0); 
  SendMessage(RichEdit1.Handle, EM_SETEVENTMASK, 0, mask or ENM_LINK); 
  SendMessage(RichEdit1.Handle, EM_AUTOURLDETECT, 1, 0);  
end;

procedure TForm1.RichEditWndProc(var Message: TMessage); 
begin 
  PrevRichEditWndProc(Message);
  case Message.Msg of
    CN_NOTIFY:
      begin
        if (TWMNotify(Message).NMHdr^.code = EN_LINK) then
        begin
          with PENLink(Message.LParam)^ do
          begin
            if (msg = WM_LBUTTONDOWN) then
            begin 
              SendMessage(RichEdit1.Handle, EM_EXSETSEL, 0, LongInt(@chrg)); 
              ShellExecute(Handle, 'open', PChar(RichEdit1.SelText), 0, 0, SW_SHOWNORMAL); 
            end;
          end;
        end;
      end;
    CM_RECREATEWND:
      begin
        SetRichEditMasks;
      end;
  end;

Have you tried this with a stripped-down application to make sure that it is not something else in your program that is causing problems? I followed the steps from this website in Delphi 2009 and clicking the URLs worked fine.
