Opening links inemail messages
I am unable to open links on opened email message ie. clicking Washington Post headline stories link should open the story but I get no response. What, if anything, am I doing incorrectly?

From:
http://www.fjsmjs.com/OE/nolinks.htm If nothing happens when you click a link: Open Windows Explorer, or the Control Panel. Go to Tools | Folder Options | File Types. Scroll down to [NONE] URL:HyperText Transfer Protocol (NOT URL:Internet Shortcut) 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. -- Bruce Hagen MS-MVP Outlook Express ~IB-CA~ "Ralph Chambers" wrote in message news:8CRYg.8026$eZ4.183@dukeread06...

Thanks Bruce - the problem was Mozilla Firefox would not vacate even though
I used control panel to remove it. Mucked around and removed Mozilla then clicked new action then browse then in "open with" I opened iexplore then added open to the action and everything came right. Without your help I was "dead in the water". Thanks again. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I am using the free version of SPAMfighter for private users. It has removed 69 spam emails to date.
