Opening Links on Outlook Express

[Matt]

Outlook Express will not open my Internet Explorer to go to a web page
if I click on a selected link.

At the moment I have to go highlight, copy and paste, the links to go to
the page's

Unfortinatly some links are not address's just displayed as pictures for
some mail. How do I open them? Better How do I get OE to open IE and send it
to the link?

Click Tools, Internet Options or Start, Settings, Control Panel, Internet Options, under
Tempory Internet Files, click "Delete Files", check "delete all offline content", click "OK",
"OK",

Another reported cure is to click Start, Run. In the run box, type
"regsvr32 urlmon.dll" without the quotes and press Enter. Then open
Internet Explorer and go to Tools, Internet Options, "Programs" tab,
and click on "Reset Web Settings...", click "Apply", "OK"

Now try it again. If it still fails to work, then look here:
