PC working fine other than unable to connect to links within received emails. They simply will not open although open normally outside of OE. Any ideas?

Do you use HTML or plain text, Q?

I've seen this in the past - have you tried and removed another browser, in particular Google Chrome?

Can you reset your browser to be the default browser, Q?

Rik: HTML

Inky : You may be on the right track

Have changed over a couple of days ago from Chrome back to FF, haven't removed Chrome from the HD though. What should be my next move?

I think follow Simon's suggestion

As Simon suggests, resetting FF back to default browser might help.

If you are getting the "This operation has been cancelled due to restrictions in effect on this computer." message then hasve a look at http://www.slipstick.com/problems/link_restrict.htm but if not then have a look at it anyway!

Well Chaps! What do you know? Turned Chrome back on as default browser and BINGO! links in email up and running perfectly

Thanks to all
