Explorer: viewing source problem

[Paul]

Hi there

I seem to have the following problem with Explorer
Browser:
- if I want to have a look at the source of a webpage and
click on the View Source in the View Menu, then nothing
pops up. Usually I could see it in WORDPAD before, but
it's been some time now that I cant access the source at
all. I've tried rebooting the computer, but still nothing
happens.
Is there anything I can do? Does anyone else experience
this problem?

Thanks
Paul

Paul,
First, clear the IE cache. IE> Tools> Internet Options> General> Delete
files (and delete offline content.) It's often recommended that the TIF
folder be kept at about 50 MB (Settings.)

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

Some people have reported that Quick View Plus can cause this
