very helpful.
My question is this:
When I click on a web address in my
e-mails nothing happens. I am plagued with the old cut, copy and paste.
Is there a way to get Outlook Express to open up the web address in my
Internet Explorer browser? "
My answer:
I've been asked this question a few times in the past
but can honestly say that I've never experienced the problem myself.
Every link I've ever clicked on in Outlook Express works for me. The
only thing I can think of which might block a browser Window from opening up
within Outlook Express is some type of 3rd party ad-blocking software.
For
example: I've got a pop up killer installed on my machine, called
Pop Up Stopper.
When it's set for "aggressive mode", I must press and hold the CTRL key on
my keyboard *with* the left mouse button for any link which opens up a new
browser Window within Outlook Express. The reason why I have to do
this is so that Outlook Express doesn't flip pop up Windows in my face when I
receive spam emails that have pop ups.
Other than that, I'm not aware of
any Outlook Express option that blocks web links when clicked.
Does anyone
know the answer to this? Email me (below).
