Clickable links in some emails don't work

Vista Home Premium, SP1 - Outlook 2007.
I subscribe to a number of Microsoft email letters. On two of them, TechNet
news letter and Download notifications, the hyperlinks do nothing - no error
message, they just do not open a browser window. All the other MS emails I
subscribe to work OK.
How can this be fixed?

Often the problem is in the content.
Often you can reconstruct the URL from the content,
or paste it in the Address bar and use it that way instead.

Post the source from an example if you still need help.

Do you have another browser installed? Is IE the default Browser in Program
Defaults?

See http://www.oehelp.com/ielnk.aspx. The fix in

is another possibility.
