updated ie7 - clicking on some links closes browser

[Tom Barkas]

Since I installed the batch of updates from last week, clicking on
some of the links on several sites results in immediate closure of the
browser. What is going on?

Here's the message I received from one of the MS "MVPs":

"Those with IE7-specific questions or comments are asked to post to and seek
support in this newsgroup: microsoft.public.internetexplorer.general

On the web:
http://www.microsoft.com/communitie...?dg=microsoft.public.internetexplorer.general

In your newsreader:
news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.internetexplorer.general

Hi Malarkey,

Strange. Wonder why they don't make an IE7 one. I can't find this
group in my newsreader. I've used the communities thing to see if
anyone has any ideas. Thanks.

Thanks, Frank,

Using your info, I've managed to put it into Agent, which is the
reader I use.

Thanks for the previous message on this problem in the newsgroup.
