Suddenly, hyperlinks in OE e-mail messages don't work, e.g. I can see the
URL in the dialog box at the bottom of the screen, but it doesn't open the
browser. I'm not sure, but this may have started after I downloaded IE 7
Beta 2. Has anyone encountered this problem?

You need only two tools: WD-40 and duct tape.
If it doesn't move and it should, use WD-40.
If it moves and shouldn't, use duct tape.

Bruce;
I'm having the same problem with putting a web page link in a message (OE
6.0) no beta testing on IE7.0 (I have IE6.0 with all updates)
I'm getting a 404 error and no page can be accessed.
This started in the last few days.

OP had a problem when clicking on a link in an e-mail message. You sound
more like the opposite. Are you having a problem when in a Web page clicking
Send Link or Send Page? Is this the case?

What's happening is that if I type in a link and mail it, it throws up a 404
page not available for the end user. I tried setting a link up and mailing
it to myself and got the same thing.
This seems to have started this week.
If I type in the web page manually in IE, it comes up normally.
I've noticed also that if I set the link in an email with just the main
site, it sometimes will work. It's when I put in a / and a sub page that I
always get the error.
Here's one site that is doing this.
If I give you the following link www.fscloud9.com I'm not sure if it will
work for you. It will work if you type it in your browser...or at least it
does for me. Even if the main web page which is what I gave you works, the
following shouldn't work www.fscloud9.com/forum

Open a Web page and from the address bar, copy the URL and then paste it
into an e-mail and send it to yourself and see it there is a difference.
