Hi,

Since upgrading to IE6 (Outlook Express 6) I cannot get hyperlinks in email to work

The url shows up in the email and its highlighted and underlined so it looks like Outlook recognises it as a link

But when I click on it nothing happens

Any Ideas ?

For what its worth I cannot get IE Shortcuts from the desk top to work either, I get a message about file associations, I have checked all of that according to Microsft doco and it looks correct but still does not work


Cheers,
Bill
 
You need to check the file association for URL:Hyper Text Transfer Protocol. Depending on which OS you are using it will be listed differently. File association will be found under Windows Explorer usually under TOOLS - FOLDER OPTIONS. joegz
