View Full Version : DISPLAYED LINKS IN E-MAILS


May 13th 03, 07:56 PM
hi, I hope you can help me. I have spent several hours
looking for info on this subject.For the last 3 months or
so, I have not been able to to click on any links sent to
me in my e-mails. Example: I belong to several opinion
panels. I have not been able to click on the link to get
to my survey. Well, I click but nothing happens. How can
this be possible? I have never had any problems with this
before, and find it very frustrating trying to get an
answer and some suggestion of how to correct this. I have
not been capable of getting the surveys done in the last
3 months. I am sure they sre wondering what is going on
as I have always participated for the last 3 yrs.
Thank you for any kind of input you can give me. And yes,
I did run several antivirus, nothing shows up. Clean as a
whistle.

Look for "In OE, IE won't respond to a Hyperlink".

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

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.
