Problem with View Source in IE

[VinceR]

For some reason I can not click on view source and see
the code of a page I am viewing while on a specific page
or web site. Can any one tell me if my settings are wrong
or how to correct this problem....Thanks

VinceR,
There may be several reasons .........

1) If a shortcut exists on the Desktop for Notepad, rename it.
2) Some users have reported Quick View Plus to be the culprit?
[or]
Close all instances of OE and IE
Control Panel | Internet Options | General tab | Delete Files button
Also select the option: "Delete all offline files"
Then click the "Clear History" button, while you're at it ......
Reset the TIF cache size to 50 mb. Click Apply\Ok
