When I get a link in my e-mails, Outlook will no longer automatically
connect me to that link. How or can settings be changed to automatically
connect me to that posted link?
 
I have the same problem. I have ooked in IE options, last tab and can not
determine what should be or shouldn't be checked (recommended by Diane
Poremsky).
 
I clicked the Reset button in IE and restarted the computer. This did not
solve the problem.

Do you see the Reset button? Click it.

Does it only do that on that specific link or does it do that on any
link you receive in any e-mail?

week ago. Prior to that i have had no problem.
