Can't view source of web pages

[Jabbamonkey]

I can't view the page source of anything. Whenever I right
click and choose "view source", nothing happens. Also,
when I go up to "view" and choose "source", nothing
happens either. What's going on and how can I fix this?

Jabbamonkey,
1. Clear the IE cache. IE> Tools> Options> General> Delete files (and delete
offline content.) It's often recommended that the TIF folder be kept at
about 50 MB. Bigger isn't necessarily better.

2. If you have a shortcut to Notepad.exe on the desktop, rename it.

3. Is notepad.exe undamaged and installed to the proper directory?
