When updating my IE5 to the latest IE via the Microsoft
website I am having trouble with hyperlinking.

When clicking a link within a webpage or e-mail, a window
opens but just stays blank, I can then type or paste an
address in the address box and it works perfectly ???

I even had to downgrade to ie5 to post this as the "new
post" button hyperlinks !!

I have tried the fix supplied to authorise the .dll's but
this is un-successful

At a bit of a dead-end @ mo

Thanks in advance

Click to expand...

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


You can also try this:

Go to Start/run, and type SFC (SFC /SCANNOW for Win2K or WinXP).
Choose 'Extract One File From Installation Disk'.
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 folder of your installation CD-ROM (typically
D:\Win98), or in your Windows\Options\Cabs folder, as the case may be.

Then, next to 'Save File In', enter C:\Windows\System, and click OK. System
File Checker 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.
