Simplified solution above from @topcat3 and made it work on Win10.

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT
    alert
    (Default) = "URL:Alert Protocol"
    URL Protocol = ""
    DefaultIcon
        (Default) = "iexplore.exe,1"
    shell
        open
            command
                (Default) = cmd /V /C set "arg1=%1" & set arg1=!arg1:alert:=! & "!ProgramFiles(x86)!\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe" !arg1!
