Title: Links Stopped Working on Outlook Express
Post by: artbuc on March 04, 2013, 03:03:09 PM

I recently changed security settings as instructed by Verizon FiOS. I thought we only changed the port numbers for incoming/outgoing servers but it seems like since we made the changes, I can not open any links that are contained in my emails. Can anyone give me some tips on what may be going on? Thanks.

PS I am not 100% sure that the problem started immediately after Verizon and I made the security setting changes but that appears to be the most likely explanation.

Edit: I just found a post where someone had the same problem. They had inadvertently installed Google Chrome and then uninstalled it. They said it "messed-up" their keys and they had to change everything back to htmlfiles. I also inadvertently installed Chrome when doing some other update and I then unistalled it. How do I change back to htmlfiles?

Never mind...all fixed. All I had to do was set IE as default. Apparently the install/uninstall of Chrome changed the default.
