Outlook settings, Can't connect to links inside e-mails

[David S]

When I have Outlook opened reading my e-mail I get this message, title bar:
Microsoft Office Outlook; body: "This operation has been canceled due to
restrictions in effect on this computer. Please contact your system
administrator.", whenever I click on a link in the body of the e-mail. I have
not changed any settings on my computer, it just started to do this on it's
own. This is a home computer with a wireless network, has firewall program.
anti virus. How do I correct this setting so that I can go to the links
inside my e-mails. Product: Microsoft Office Outlook 2003 (11.8010.6568) SP2,
Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition Version 5.1 (Build
2600.xpsp_sp2_gdr.050301-1519 : Service Pack 2).

I have these notes regarding links not opening in Outlook:

Open Internet Explorer, Tools, Internet Options, Programs tab. Choose
Reset Web Settings. Click OK and close the dialog. Then, from
Start/Run, type this command and press Enter: regsvr32 /i shdocvw.dll

If nothing helps, inspect the htmlfile and http associations in the
registry, as per KB310049:

OL2002: Error Message: This Operation Has Been Cancelled Due to
Restrictions in Effect on this Computer:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=310049

If this doesn't help, post your question in an Outlook-specific group
since the problem is with the application, not the operating system.
Try microsoft.public.outlook.general.

Ok, I reset Web Settings, the Start/Run command regsvr32 /i shdocvw.dll was
also done. Same results as before. Funny thing is, I was able to click on a
hot link on a web page and connect to that web page, the link you put in your
reply. I guess I'll have to try the next step.

Thank you Malke
