Links in Outlook emails notifying about replies to posts on this f

[gh]

When I receive an email notifying me of replies to posts I make on this
forum, the links do not work. IE opens, but I get nothing but a blank page.
Sometimes I can get the links to work by opening the forum from within IE,
signing out, signing in back in, but as far as I can tell this is not
infallible. This may be an IE issue but I have not as yet found an obvious
cure...

In addition, (though this is also probably an IE issue) today I tried to
sign in using my Hotmail address using "enhanced security", and my
credentials were rejected every time, even when I reverted to stanbard
security. Once I close IE and tried again with standard security my
credentials were accepted.

Try emptying the IE cache and reset web settings.

Do yourself a favour and DITCH THE HORRIBLE WEB INTERFACE. Use a news reader
instead.

Thanks for the suggestion. However, the last time clearing the IE cache
actually fixed an IE problem was probably in 1996... ;-)
