| Re: Hyperlinks wont open from outlook express What problem were you experiencing that you hoped a Repair Install of Windows would resolve? Did it? Did this problem exist before you did the Repair Install? Are you running IE7? -- ~Robear Dyer (PA Bear) MS MVP-Windows (IE, OE, Security, Shell/User) Ubin wrote: > Strange, when I click on a link with an email or Usenet posting, the link > wont open. > Firefox is default browser. > Any ideas what is happening? > > Recent repair install of XP |

This might correct the associations for url, http and other links, necessary. You might reboot between changes, if not restart the browsers, and only have one running during the changes so the changes "take". -- Joe =o) |
