links in email messages don't work

[kgolfs]

As of two days ago, links that are in my email (Outlook Express) won't work. I cannot get any email postcards or anything like that. I click on the links and the browswer window opens but nothing happens. I went to windows update and reloaded all the components to Internet Explorer 6 and Outlook express but no help.
I have cable modem and Zone Alarm 2.6.362 , uninstalled an reinstalled it, no help either.
Got any ideas on how I can repair this?
Thanks-Karen

You probably have a broken entry in file associations. This article will show you how to check that. (be sure to put the command in quotes, "c:\program files\..." ) http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/q177/0/54.asp

This is one of the miraculously changing Microsoft links again, sadly...

It is now known as http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;q177054


[edit] Strange, at first your link didn't work, but now it does, DJ...
Probably due to the second one now sitting in my Temp. internet Cache.
Well, at least you have 2 possibilities to get there, now...[/edit]

Good luck,

The article q177054 resolved the link problem in Outlook Express!! Thanks so much for your help. I was totally stumped. KDR

Anytime.

And thank you Tony. I need to get in the habit of checking them.

I've got loads of old ones as well.
Will have to force myself to check every single one of them before posting ...
