can't open "click here" in e-mails

[Guest]

When trying to "click here" on e-mails that will direct me to another web
site or more info, I can't do it. My pointer hand shows a yellow X in the
corner and then nothing happens! Also can't open some links. Same thing with
the hand! Any idea as to what is going on!
Thanx

I too need HELP! on this. There are several posts stating the same problem.
Can anybody out there help?? I suggested doing a system restore, but that
only works for a few days. It must be a virus or hijack or something. My
ISP couldn't even help. Can or will MS back their products? Can I post a
new question in this discussion group? Answer NO.

Try this: in IE, click Tools>Internet Options>Programs>Reset Web Settings.

Of course. This newsgroup, though, is not an official support channel for
Microsoft. See the MS web site for the official channels.

Can I post a new question in this discussion group?

Of course. You just proved it by doing so.

Thank You Brian! I will certainly try this - the problem is on my sister's
computer downstairs. We have tried just about everything. Now she's getting
double emails again. When I asked if I could ask a new question, I meant,
start a new thread. When I click on that icon, nothing happens. Also, the
only way I can sign in is to try and reply to an existing post as there is no
sign in button.

Use a real newsreader instead of the web interface. This group is, for
example,
news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.outlook.general . If you click
this link, the newsgroup should open in Outlook Express or whatever you have
set in the "Newsgroups" field of Internet Explorer's Tools>Internet
Options>Programs tab.
