Some time ago, opening a link from an email message in OL2007 stopped
working.

What will work is if IE8 is closed, then the first link will open IE and the
correct link. Any clicks on other links does nothing.

Any ideas.

P.S. It all works fine in Mozilla.

Is firefox the default browser? Go into IE's Tools, Folder options and reset
web settings - confirm its working then set FF as default, if desired.

Diane, thanks for the reply, no FF is not the default.

I am/have been a big MS fan, but lately things are starting to fall  apart
and I am not sure why!

No viruses etc. clean registry, hardisk clean. I am suspecting Adobe as I
installed Photoshop/Premiere 7/0

Tried uninstall Adobe but no avail.
