Links sent to me in email show up as blue and the curser
turns into the hand when over it but clicking on the link
does nothing, it won't open a site on the internet. What
do I have to adjust? Have turned off firewall and problem
continues. Help! Thanks...

Using Outlook Express 6 in Windows XP Home - Internet
Secuity installed but all turned off (other than
antivirus)
 
Hi - I'd turn the firewall back on as it is not the likely culprit (and it's
too dangerous not to use it). But note -

This is a group to support Outlook from the Office group of programs.
Outlook Express is a part of Internet Explorer and is a quite different
program, despite its similar name..

You will probably get a faster and more expert answer if you post this to an
Outlook Express news group.

Try posting in one of these newsgroups:
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie5.outlookexpress for OE 5.x
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie55.outlookexpress for OE 5.5x
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6_outlookexpress for OE 6.x
microsoft.public.internet.outlookexpress.mac for OE for Macintosh

If those groups aren't carried on the news server that's carrying this group
try using msnews.microsoft.com (MS's public news server that's the source
for all the microsoft.public newsgroups).

A good website for information on OE is:
