    I am starting this thread because the problem I'm having is not the one I had last night when I couldn't log in.

    I cannot click on any URL that comes through my email. Not only the BB notification, but ANY of them.

    Is it a problem with IE or Outlook Express and what can I do to fix it???

    Thanks,
    §ue

    Hi Sue,
    I had problems with IE, was advised to try Firefox. I tried it and "I like it" I prefer it to IE.

    Give it a try, see what you think.

    Ron, I have the latest version of IE and all the latest Microsoft updates.

    Bruren, I downloaded Firefox last night and then I uninstalled it. IE hasn't worked right since.

    Could something have been messed up in the transfer from IE to Firefox and back again?

    Go to add/remove programs, click on MS browser and see if it gives you a repair option. If it does give that a try.

    If links in a browser won't work, try hitting refresh and see if they come to life. (Especially on firefox)

    There is interaction between programs at times, not that there is supposed to be, so you might be right.

    I like firefox as well, but some sites it hicups on and I need explorer.

    Hah! I found the problem and it is all better now. [​IMG]

    I guess when I switched back from Firefox to IE, it failed to restore IE as my default browser.

    Thanks for all your help!

    Each of us should probably check our profiles as well and adjust the TIME function.

    The new server apparently is in a different time zone.

    I've been posting for two hours later than my current Eastern time zone.

    Yes, I had to adjust mine to -3 hours to get it right.
