Recently, when I try to access any URLs from an e-mail, nothing happens. I end up copying it and pasting it into Goggle where I then can access the site.
Could it be that the problem is connected with my downloading & installing MYIE2, which I proceeded to uninstall for various reasons. I'm running IE6.0, SP1 plus additional updfates. |

What e-mail program are you using?

Ah, but everything works except the desktop .url shortcuts & web addresses in e-mails, the latter asynchronously. I can live with accessing web sites via the Favorites route or doing the c & p routine for e-mail urls, but I'd rather get the problem fixed since mama ain't too happy.And that is never, ever to be taken lightly!
Thanks for the reply one and all. |

The MS KB article, Internet Shortcuts in Outlook Express Do Not Start Web Browser has the fix.
