I can't click on a link and be taken to that site. I now have to copy the
link and paste it into the browser for it to work. Do you know why that has
happened?

Not why, but maybe a fix.

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

If nothing happens when you click a link:
Open Windows Explorer.
Go to Tools | Folder Options | File Types.
Scroll down to {NONE} 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.

Sometimes it is necessary to uncheck Use DDE.

You may need to reboot.

Thank you for responding so quickly. I think I have made the changes you
suggested, but it's still not working correctly. I will try it again just in
case I did something wrong.

If that did not work, then:

StartRun type, or Copy/Paste, these in one at a time and try again. (Note
the space in each command).

regsvr32 Mshtml.dll
regsvr32 Oleaut32.dll
regsvr32 Shell32.dll
regsvr32 actxprxy.dll
regsvr32 shdocvw.dll
regsvr32 urlmon.dll

In IE, go to: ToolsInternet OptionsPrograms. Click: Reset Web
Settings - (uncheck box for homepage) - Click Yes.

I copied and pasted each of the following, but when I entered the very first
one Mshtml.dll , I received the message that Mshtml.dll was loaded, but the
DllRegisterServer entry point was not found. This file can not be
registered.Any
suggestions?

You'd tell us if you were running IE7 Beta, right?

Oh, Wow. Is that it? And also I didn't mention I also have Deepnet Explorer
on my computer. I am so sorry, I didn't even think about IE7. Can you offer
any suggestions now?
Thanks, Laura

[Control Panel Add/Remove Programs ] Set Program Access and Defaults
Browser: IE *must* be chosen here if you're running IE7 Beta 2 and want such
links to work.

Beta testers of IE7 Public Preview are asked to post their comments to
microsoft.public.internetexplorer.general newsgroup.

On the web:
http://www.microsoft.com/communities...orer. general
