Unable to open link
 
I seem unable to open a links window. Every time i click on a link, all i get is an empty internet explorer window. Any help would be gratefully recieved.

Close internet explorer, then Go to start-> run->

and type:

regsvr32 urlmon.dll

and press return.

That should get you sorted.

Download firefox ;)

Clear all cache, disc cleans up and antispy checks

Are you using any ad blocking programmes ? If so, temporarily disable it and try the links again.

Regards.

But to do so you would have to copy and paste the link into your browser ;)
