hyperlinks do not work from emails
What new update? (IE8?). Add/Remove shows updates if you check the, "Show
Updates", box at the top. Please read /all/ of the below. Hyperlinks do not work in Outlook Express after you upgrade to Internet Explorer 7 [and IE8] : http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929867 If still no joy, for IE6 & IE7: Courtesy of MVP Frank Saunders. [RIP] If nothing happens when you click a link: Open Windows Explorer, or the Control Panel. Go to Tools | Folder Options | File Types. Scroll down to [NONE] URL:HyperText Transfer Protocol (NOT URL:Internet Shortcut) and select it. Click Edit or Advanced, depending on your Windows version. Select 'open'. Click Edit. "Application used to perform this action" should read: "C:\PROGRAM FILES\INTERNET EXPLORER\iexplore.exe" -nohome (Check the path to iexplore.exe to make sure that is correct and use the double quotes.) DDE should be checked and in the boxes below it you should have: #1: "%1",,-1,0,,,, #2 IExplore #3 (blank) #4 WWW_OpenURL URL:HyperText Transfer Protocol with Privacy should be the same. If all the above is correct, uncheck: Use DDE. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - If you get a blank page when you click a link in an e-mail: 1. Click Start, and then click Run. 2. In the Open box, type: regsvr32 urlmon.dll 3. Click OK, and then click OK again when you receive the following message: DllRegisterServer in urlmon.dll succeeded. 4. If that doesn't fix it, see this article: http://www.mvps.org/inetexplorer/answers/26.html 5. If you are using WinXP try this: http://www.mvps.org/sramesh2k/reg/IE...lt_Browser.reg You can also try this: Go to Start/run, and type SFC (msconfig for WinXP). Choose 'Extract One File From Installation Disk' ("Expand File" for WinXP). Type oleaut32.dll, not worrying about its location. Then, click Start. Next to 'Restore From', type in or browse for the file's location, which is probably in the Win98 (i386 for WinXP) folder of your installation CD-ROM (typically D:\Win98), or in your Windows\Options\Cabs (Windows\i386 for WinXP) folder, as the case may be. Then, next to 'Save File In', enter C:\Windows\System (C:\Windows\System32 for WinXP), and click OK. System File Checker (or msconfig) looks for the file, saves it as you requested, and then tells you that 'the file has been successfully extracted'. You may need to reboot. -- Bruce Hagen MS-MVP Outlook Express Imperial Beach, CA "LBGIGI" wrote in message ...
