MS Office Forum / Outlook / General MS Outlook Questions / May 2008Emails containing hyperlinks are not working how do I fix this?
When I receive an email with a hyperlink if I try and click on the hyperlink it opens a Locate Link Browser button instead of opening the web page. This is especially annoying if the email has an automated unsubscribe link because there is no other way for me to ask them not to send the emails to me any more. I have broadband constantly connected so the communications is not an issue. Is there some setting that I can turn on? If you are using Windows XP, click start, and then "program access and defaults" Check "custom", and then click the down arrow on the right side of the window. Under the first option (default web browser), check Internet Explorer, then click OK. If this doesn't solve the problem (or you are not using XP) post again, and I will post a different option. > When I receive an email with a hyperlink if I try and click on the hyperlink > it opens a Locate Link Browser button instead of opening the web page.

I did notice that if I go back into "program access and defaults", Internet Explorer is not selected. Should this stay selected? > If you are using Windows XP, click start, and then "program access and > defaults" [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > > more.

Same solution, reset you default browser settings via Start-> Default Programs  SignatureRobert Sparnaaij [MVP-Outlook] Coauthor, Configuring Microsoft Outlook 2003 http://www.howto-outlook.com/ Outlook FAQ, HowTo, Downloads, Add-Ins and more http://www.msoutlook.info/ Real World Questions, Real World Answers ----- > Same prob but I am using Vista. > [quoted text clipped - 23 lines] >> > > not an >> > > issue. Is there some setting that I can turn on? I did as everyone has suggested, by resetting my web settings, but I still can't open hyperlinks in my calendar. Let me back up and explain my situation. I had Office 2003... was upgraded to 2007, but was having issues with various 'other' applications, so was restored to 2003. Prior to the upgrade I was able to insert 'linked' docs in my calendar. Then when I was upgraded to 2007, I was still able to inser 'linked' docs into my calendar. However, not that I'm back to 2003, the links I created previously in 2003 work fine, but those I created in 2007 don't. Any ideas as to why?
