Hyperlink from Microsoft Word .doc causing Invalid Browser Error

I've run into a bug where my website will not allow a user to click a valid hyperlink from a microsoft word document (2010, 2013 tested) and correctly go to the website.

The website is using MVC architectural patterns, so any action such as index, help, etc do not work.

Has anyone ran into this issue, if so, how was it resolved? I can't seem to find any other issues like this being listed.

It would be helpful to see the exact error message - was it "invalid browser error"? Errors like that are usually related to an issue with Internet Explorer trying and failing to handle the URL, even though it may not be your default browser.

See here and here.
