Hi all, I have just purchased a new laptop with windows 7 and when I receive a reply to a question from a forum and it comes with a link I click on the link I get a message saying "link not found" when I open the message on my old laptop with XP and click on the link it goes straight to it? Any ideas.

is it using the new windows explorer 9 or 10?,there have been problems with it.try using firefox or chrome,and see if it makes any difference.DO NOT try to uninstall windows explorer!!!!.it is essential to your operating system,you can disable it,and make another browser the prime browser.both these browsers are free.Try them and see if it makes any difference.hope this might help

I've used Firefox for years now, I find it much preferable to Internet Explorer. Give it a try and see if it solves your link problem...  www.mozilla.org/ |

Hi shezza........  Found this see if it sorts out your problem... This is related to bad DCOM settings. Use the fix below to resolve the issue. Use the run command: Open "DCOMCNFG" to open up the Component services Expand `component services' and `computers' and right hand click on `properties' This would open the properties for My Computer and click on "Default Properties" Ensure that Default Authentication Level is "Connect" Default Impersonation Level is "Identify" Barry  |
