When I click on a link to open up a new window within
Internet Explorer, the computer does not do anything. The
toolbar only blinks. I have all popup blocker software
disabled but it continues to do this. Please advise.
Thank you.

Open Windows Explorer.
Go to Tools | Folder Options | File Types.
Scroll down to URL:HyperText Transfer Protocol and select it.
Click Edit or Advanced, depending on your Windows version.
Select 'open'.
Click Edit.
"Application used to perform this action" should read:
"C:\PROGRAM FILES\INTERNET EXPLORER\iexplore.exe" -nohome
(Check the path to iexplore.exe to make sure that is correct and use the
double quotes.)
DDE should be checked and in the boxes below it you should have:
#1:
"%1",,-1,0,,,,
#2
IExplore
#3 (blank)
#4
WWW_OpenURL
URL:HyperText Transfer Protocol with Privacy should be the same.
Sometimes it is necessary to uncheck Use DDE.
If that doesn't fix it, go to Start | Run and type
regsvr32 urlmon.dll
Another thing to examine:
Actions Such as Search and Drag and Drop Do Not Work Because the Default
Access Permissions Have Been Changed in the Dcomcnfg.exe Tool
