Error Message When Clicking on a Link

B

Bob Holiday

Let's say I'm in an on-line newsletter which I'm reading, wherein I decide
to click on one of the links. If I've not refreshed the page the past few
minutes, I get the following error message:

"Your email message has been idle and this link has become inactive. To
access the link, close this window and return to your Message. Then click
the browser's Refresh button or close your message and reopen it."

Yeah, I can hit F5 and refresh, or copy/paste the link into my browser
window. But how can I change Explorer so that I don't get the error message
in the first place, or perhaps not get the error message after a more
reasonable length of time, like, say, a half hour? I'd be glad to edit the
registry, if that'll do it, if someone can tell me how.

I'm using IE6 / WinXP SP2.

Thanks!

Copy/paste the link from the Hotmail message into an IE Addressbar, instead
of just clicking on the link.

Also see www.hotmail.com > Options > Personal > Session expiration, and
increase the timeout setting.
