Tip 293: Hyperlinks Not Working?

Are you having problems using hyperlinks in your email? Try resetting Internet Explorer – from either IE's tools, options menu or Control panel, Internet settings, go to the Programs tab and click the button to reset web settings.

If you are trying to use Firefox and hyperlinks cause Windows Explorer to open, see Use FireFox as the Default Browser to Open Links.

See This operation has been cancelled due to restrictions for other options if resetting the web settings don’t work.
