Internet Explorer 7 links won't open

My browser was working fine then all of a sudden when I'm on a page and I try
to open a link it won't work. Example on QVC website and I want to see the 24
hour review. It opens the page for me to set my time zone but it never resets
the time zone it just keeps reloading the same page. Anyone with any ideas on
what happened.

RE: Internet Explorer 7 links won't open

I am having the same problem. Does anyone know how to fix this? I uninstalled
and reinstalled IE7, but no luck...

RE: Internet Explorer 7 links won't open

I was unable to reproduce the same behavior on my unit. Try the following:

1) Have you tried No Add-Ons Mode? Right click on the desktop icon and
select Start Without Add-ons.

2) Tools>Internet Options>General Tab
Under Browsing History click on Settings
Click on View Objects
Do you see any listed with a Yellow Shield with Exclamation Mark inside?
Right click on all of them and select remove
On the remaining objects listed, right click and select properties.
Click on Dependency Tab
Do you see Damaged listed? If you do, then click Ok, Right click on it
again and this time click on Remove
When you are finished, close the Downloaded Programs Window
Click Ok twice
Reboot

3) Test your Java Installation to ensure you have the most current version
installed.

4) Test both your Flash and Shockwave Players

5) Are you using Security Software with Protection Guard? Try disabling
Protection Guard.

RE: Internet Explorer 7 links won't open

Thanks so much for you response.
Well I tried all that and I did have some damaged files but nothing seems to
have helped. What I don't get is that it was working a week ago and now it
doesn't. Anyone have any other suggestions.

RE: Internet Explorer 7 links won't open

You have to hold the "Ctrl" key while you click on the link, then it will open.
