Cannot follow Links

[Suzie]

Hi
As from today I am unable to follow any links - either from a website or
email. All I get is a new window which sits doing nothing with a title of
Microsoft Internet Explorer. I've just installed the windows update
KB833407 - has this had something to do with it. Any suggestion would be
greatly appreciated. Thanks. Susie

Hi

Try this:

From Start>Run type

regsvr32 urlmon.dll

then open Internet Explorer and go to Tools>Internet Options>Programs and
click on 'Reset Web Settings...'. Then try the links again.

Thanks Will, I followed all your instructions, but everything still the
same.

Thanks Jim, that worked - any idea what would have caused that to happen?
