For awhile now I have had this problem. In emails I receive that have a link in them to click, I click on the link and nothing pops up. I know something does sometime. Because when there is sound with it, I can hear the sound, but no page pops up. This problem also occurs when I am on different sites and click a link that would normally open another page. Again nothing pops up. But sometimes I can get around this if I right click 'open up in a new tab or window'. I believe a few months back when I was cleaning out programs I no longer used, I accidentally deleted something I did need. I am pretty sure this problem has nothing to do with a pop up blocker. Because I have tried this with the blocker on or off. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, discoal

Do you get any kind of "Active X controls" messages at the top of the screen? Also check your internet settings. You may have the controls set to high.
