IE javascript navigation doesn't work for some users

I have four users on my XP Pro PC and three of them cannot navigate to links which use javascript for navigation

Here is the minimum code required to reproduce my problem
<html><body><a href="http://www.microsoft.com">href test</a><a href="javascript:window.open('http://www.microsoft.com')">javascript test</a></body></html

The javascript link only works for one user and not the others

Thanks for any help you can offer

I've narrowed down (or expanded<g>) the problem. It seems even the context menu item for a link to open in a new window doesn't work

And non-javascript anchor tags can also demonstrate the problem. So, some updated HTML
<html><head><script
function testit() {
try {
window.open('http://www.microsoft.com')
} catch (e) {
alert(e);


</script></head><body><a href="http://www.microsoft.com">href test</a><a href="http://www.microsoft.com" target="_blank">href target test</a><a href="javascript:testit();">javascript test</a></body></html

The alert just displays "object Error

Thanks again
