556837 2007-06-07 04:40:00 I do not appear to be able to make the "links" to sites work when I recieve them in an email. I click on the link and wait but nothing appears on the screen.
I am running Xp with Zone Alarm,Spy Sweeper amd Spybot search and destroy.
I suspect that I need to configure one or more of my virus and spyware apps.

Can anyone help me with this

556840 2007-06-07 05:06:00 Tried holding down ctrl and then click on the link? Sometimes the email client wants that, although i don't think that's the case in OE6. wratterus (105)

556842 2007-06-19 07:49:00 Hi I have the same problem. Seems to have happened since last update to Outlook and Outlook Express. I've even shut down Zone Alarm (a risk I Know) but no success. A work around is to copy and past to IE or firefox. Can anyone help us. mcdon (5945)
556843 2007-06-19 08:48:00 I found it, I found it and it wasn't in the Yellow Pages.
I fixed the problem by resetting Outlook as the default email program by going to Start/All Programs/Set Program Access and Defaults as mentioned in another thread. Thanks to whoever it was. My embarrassment is purple/pink. One to remember.
