source under view in ie does NOT come up

[Guest]

On any web page, if I click "view" - "source" - nothing happens; I don't get to see the source code. I've already tried reinstalling and the same happens.

Kathy,
There may be several reasons .........

1) If a shortcut exists on the Desktop for Notepad, rename it.
2) Some users have reported Quick View Plus to be the culprit?

Close all instances of OE and IE
Control Panel | Internet Options | General tab | Delete Files button
Also select the option: "Delete all offline files"
Then click the "Clear History" button, while you're at it ......
