I previously changed my default browser from IE 6 to
Mozilla Firfox and have since changed it back to IE 6
and
now when I'm in Outlook Express checking my email then
try to click on any of the links from the emails I
receive It just opens a black page and acts as it is
trying to open but never does.
Now if I Open the IE 6 browser the links work just fine
from itself just not from Outlook express.
Your help will be greatly appreciated
Go to View | Folder Options | File Types in Windows
Explorer and check
the values for URL:Hypertext Transfer Protocol (click
edit, open, edit).
The values should read:
application:
"C:\PROGRAM FILES\INTERNET EXPLORER\iexplore.exe" -
nohome
(Check the path to iexplore.exe to make sure that is
correct)
DDE should be checked and in the boxes below it you
should have:
#1:
"%1",,-1,0,,,,
#2
IExplore
#3 (blank)
#4
WWW_OpenURL
NOTE: The above applies to Win9x. For WinMe, Win2000,
and WinXP, use
Tools | Folder Options or Control Panel | Folder Options
to access the
file types. Then edit the OPEN action for the file type.
The actual
values specified above are the same for each Operating
System.
If you find that the above process is set correctly,
and you still
have problems, then go to Start | Run and type
regsvr32 urlmon.dll
and see if that fixes the problem.
