Hi Bob G :-)

Try the following and see if it helps:

Start here:

If nothing happens when you click a link:
http://www.fjsmjs.com/OE/nolinks.htm

or..........

Open a DOS windw or use Start menu, Run, [CMD for XP]. Type this command:

REGSVR32 URLMON.DLL
Ok, Reboot.
Then in Internet Explorer go to: Tools, Internet Options, Programs, Reset
Web Settings.

In Windows Explorer go to: Tools, Folder Options, File Types.
Scroll down to URL: HyperText Transfer Protocol, Advanced, Edit.
Under "Application used to perform action" it should read:

Hi Bob :-)

You might also try the following:

Go to Start>Run and type in regsvr32 urlmon.dll
Then click ok
Then open Internet Explorer and go to
Tools>Internet Options>Programs and
click on 'Reset Web Settings...'
Try the hyperlinks again

and................

Unresponsive links - Links won't respond

Courtesy of Frank Saunders - MS MVP

From http://www.fjsmjs.com/OE/nolinks.htm

1. Click Start, and then click Run.

2. In the Open box, type:

regsvr32 urlmon.dll

3. Click OK, and then click OK again when you receive the following message:

DllRegisterServer in urlmon.dll succeeded.

4. If that doesn't fix it, see this article:

http://www.mvps.org/inetexplorer/answers.htm#new_window

5. If you are using WinXP try this:
http://www.mvps.org/sramesh2k/reg/IE_Default_Browser.reg

You can also try this:

Go to Start/run, and type SFC (msconfig for WinXP).
Choose 'Extract One File From Installation Disk' ("Expand File" for WinXP).
Type oleaut32.dll, not worrying about its location. Then, click Start.

Next to 'Restore From', type in or browse for the file's location, which is
probably in the Win98 (i386 for WinXP) folder of your installation CD-ROM
(typically D:\Win98), or in your Windows\Options\Cabs (Windows\i386 for
WinXP) folder, as the case may be.

Then, next to 'Save File In', enter C:\Windows\System (C:\Windows\System32
for WinXP), and click OK. System File Checker (or msconfig) looks for the
file, saves it as you requested, and then tells you that 'the file has been
successfully extracted'.

You may need to reboot.

If these steps do not resolve your problem, please post back to this thread
with the details and any error messages.

Hope this helps

thanks Jan but when I go to run and put in regsvr32 urimon.dll I get the

problem but I am not sure on how to repair this as I am not to computer
literate I need help.

Clean your glasses?

That is not the name of the module that Jan gave you.

Actually a better version of that command would be:

regsvr32 /i urlmon.dll

(Copy and paste the above so you don't have to read it
or transcribe it.)


I have just reread the full thread. A better answer would be:

regsvr32 /i shdocvw.dll


and a better answer than that would be to do an IE Repair.
XPsp2 has a new command for doing that:

iexplore /rereg

As this replaces a function which is normally done during a reboot
I suggest that you at least have no other IE or OE windows open
when you try this.


Good luck
