Cannot open links in MS outlook emails
Someone replied to this problem with a link in their email, unfortunately
since I cannot open links in my email the reply couldn't be read. I then posted the link in IE browser but nothing came up. If this is an alternate way of communicating this solution please try again. I have a compaq presario running Vista, IE 8 and Office 2007; purchased in Oct. 09 with 3 yr tech support. So far tech support couldn't come up with a solution. One of their people then set up Administrator, which didn't help. When I try to open up a link I get the message " This program has been cancelled due to restrictions in effect on this computer. Please contact your system administrator. I am the owner and only user of my PC and never had to set up an administrator before. Thanks for listening. George |

Cannot open links in MS outlook emails
This is a problem with IE, its not an Outlook error. You need to reset your
internet settings in IE's Tools, Internet Options, Advanced tab. (Or Control panel, Internet options, Advanced tab).

Ahah! It was Google Chrome's fault! (in my case anyway)
