1207954	2011-06-09 08:18:00	Hi everyone, I've got a new netbook - HP mini. It runs on Win7 starter and I've got Outlook 2010 as a mail client. When I click on links in mail I get a "This operation has been cancelled due to restrictions on this computer" error message. Where do I look to defeat these restrictions? Is it an outlook setting or a windows security issue? Any help appreciated. MS Security Essentials is the only security stuff onboard. Cheers Andy	andy (473)
1207955	2011-06-09 08:28:00	The majority of the time, that is caused because you have more than one browser installed, and one is not the default. Its not a restrictions in Outlook / security setting as such, just the Browsers have got them selves in a twist :D Normally you make IE the default, and it will work. You can change the default to another browser if you want afterwards. There is some More reading here (www.msoutlook.info) along with a few options to fix it. :)	wainuitech (129)
