HELP!
When I use IE it works fine until I click on a link that
opens a new window. The new window hangs and after a few
min. it gets a page cannot be dis. error. When I get an
email with a link like www.microsoft.com and I click on it
a new page opens but hangs, if I hit stop the link will
appear in the address bar and if I hit go it will go to
the page ? But it will not do it on it's own.
I do not have a pop up killer or firewall stright
windows XP Pro. It started to happen after I updated my
windows security (recomended by Microsoft) after that
Blaster worm thing. I use Norton AV 2003pro , but it still
hands when I uninstall the norton.
I had to use a library computer to post this because
when I hit POST it pops up a new window and hangs. Please
email any answer as I don't know if I will be able to
access this page again.
Thanks
Brianna

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.

Frank,

Just a quick note to say thank you. I just recently began
experiencing the same problem Brianna described in her
posting. Your initial solution fixed the problem! I
can't even begin to tell you how much time I've wasted
over the last week or so trying to figure this one out...

Thanks again,
Dave
