Check your settings in explorer (not internet explorer, but explorer):

Right click the start button, select explore
Tools>Options>General Tab>Browse folders

Not sure if this is the root of your problem or not, but it is a start.
Please let us know if it works for you.

What do you mean by "the email goes away"? Does Outlook Express (or whatever

simply set so it covers your email window? Click a hyperlink and then look
at the taskbar to see if Outlook Express is still running albeit in the
background.

the hyperlink window. Nothing is running in the background. Normal ops I
can click on IE 5 times and 5 windows will open...now each time I click the
former window is used by the current
