Javascript:void(0)

[Greg Nakagawa]

I get the subject message in the toolbar when I try to
click through on certain hyperlinks. Nothing happens at
all, no hourglass, unable to access link - just the
message Javascript:void(0) in toolbar. I had this
problem before, it was corrected through a total re-
install, but has appeared again. The MS support site
had a link to a 'scripting engine' re-install, but it was
invalid. Can anyone help?

Thanks,
Greg

You can reinstall the Java Machine

Sun Java Virtual Machine
http://java.sun.com/getjava/download1.html
or
Microsoft Virtual Machine

i used to get this message too....after doing a fresh
reinstall of windows and updates it went away....until a
month later...then i reintalled again and its fine
now....but i am wondering about it too...it seems that
reinstaling and using a 3rd party java program doesnt
help either
