When right-clicking on any web page and selecting "View
Source" nothing happens. Does anyone know why this might
be happening?

I had a shortcut on the desktop named "Notepad". I
renamed it to "Npad" and now it works! (Thanks to an
ealier post for that tip!)
 
First, clear the Temporary Internet cache:

Have you emptied your IE cache? That often works.

Make sure notepad.exe is in ..\windows and that it is not a third party
version.

Also, search your registry for the DWORD noviewsource. If that exists,
delete it or set it to 0.

Have a look at these site for hints:
