Email Link

[Al K]

Using Outlook 2003. When I receive an email with a link to a web site,
clicking it takes me to MY Documents folder. If I copy the link and paste
it in the address bar of Internet Explorer, it works fine. I did a repair
of Outlook with no improvement. Any suggestions?

the problem is not with outlook but with your browser setting. you need to
reset web settings in IE's tools options.

but my outlook errors says this is due to restrictions on my computer - see
