Since updating the Win XP SP2 I can't open any new windows. When I
clikc on a link my browser blinks and nothing happens. I have disabled all
pop-up blockers, enabled all possible Active X controls, reset security
settings, everything. In the bottom left corner of IE there is a error page
and when I click on it I get this message.

The callee (server [not server application]) is not available
and disappeared; all connections are invalid. The call did not
execute.

Any ideas??

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

Open Windows Explorer.
Go to Tools | Folder Options | File Types.
Scroll down to URL:HyperText Transfer Protocol and select it.
Click Edit or Advanced, depending on your Windows version.
Select 'open'.
Click Edit.

"Application used to perform this action" should read:

"C:\PROGRAM FILES\INTERNET EXPLORER\iexplore.exe" -nohome
(Check the path to iexplore.exe to make sure that is correct and use the
double quotes.)

DDE should be checked and in the boxes below it you should have:

#1:
"%1",,-1,0,,,,
#2
IExplore
#3 (blank)

#4
WWW_OpenURL

URL:HyperText Transfer Protocol with Privacy should be the same.

Sometimes it is necessary to uncheck Use DDE.

If that doesn't fix it, go to Start | Run and type

regsvr32 urlmon.dll
