Clicking on Internet links doesn't go to those links anymore when

using Outlook Express.

 

Any ideas as to why that is ?

 

Thanks.

Hyperlinks do not work in Outlook Express after you upgrade to Internet

Explorer 7:

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929867

 

If still no joy, for IE6 & IE7:

 

From:

http://www.fjsmjs.com/OE/nolinks.htm

 

If nothing happens when you click a link:

Open Windows Explorer, or the Control Panel.

Go to Tools | Folder Options | File Types.

Scroll down to [NONE] URL:HyperText Transfer Protocol (NOT URL:Internet

Shortcut) 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.

Re: Clicking on links in Outlook Express doesn't work

 

X-post to OE General

 

What happens when you click on link?

 

Are you running WinXP SP2 or WinXP SP3?

 

Are you running IE6 or IE7?

 

Is IE your default browser?

Re: Clicking on links in Outlook Express doesn't work

 

You should always start your own new thread.

 

What happens when you click on a link? Anything? Does it open a blank page,

etc.? Did you uncheck Use DDE?

Re: Clicking on links in Outlook Express doesn't work

 

I just went through all steps again. I then unchecked DDE. Still did not

work. When I went to go through 1 more time the DDE was checked instead of

unchecked as I had last done.

IE6

XP Professional SP2

Re: Clicking on links in Outlook Express doesn't work

 

And ***what*** happens when you click on a link in OE? Please answer.

 

If nothing happens at all, did you try the other possible fix I suggested?

 

REPOST:

 

Try re-registering these dlls:

 

Start | Run | type, or Copy/Paste, these in one at a time and try again.

(Note the space in each command).

 

regsvr32 Mshtml.dll

regsvr32 Oleaut32.dll

regsvr32 Shell32.dll

regsvr32 actxprxy.dll

regsvr32 shdocvw.dll

regsvr32 urlmon.dll

 

In IE, go to: Tools>Internet Options>Programs. Click: Reset Web Settings -

(uncheck box for homepage) - Click Yes.
