You Cannot Open New Internet Explorer Window or Nothing Happens After You Click
a Link

When I go to a website and try to click on the links, some work and some
don't. This started happening about a week ago. It happens on all websites but
not on all links. The cursor changes when I hover over the link, but when I
click (or double-click) on it, nothing happens. No error, no URL displayed at
the bottom of the screen, nothing. Sometimes when I right-click I will see an
"open" option, but not very often.
This is happening on all websites, even those that worked fine about a week
ago, so I know it's my settings and not the websites.
