Outlook 2007 Problem - Email Hyper Links stopped working

D

Don Plorde

I have Windows Vista Home Premium and Office 2007 Professional. I've used
Outlook 2007 for a year or more without problems. Suddenly I could no longer
use hyperlinks found in my email messages. The error message I get is "This
operation has been cancelled due to restrictions in effect on this computer.
Please contact your system administrator." This was true both for new
messages and old messages where the hyperlinks formerly worked with no
problem. The problem occurs when I was running as Standard User or
Administrator. I've not messed with UAC. Problem started occuring at least
two weeks after the last Office update was installed so that seemed to be an
unlikely source of the problem. I found KB310049 which seemed to address the
problem. I tried the two recommended solutions. IE7 was and continues to be
my default browser, so that suggested resolution did not seem applicable. The
other resolution was to import a registry key from another computer. The
latter did not fix the problem. I had made very few changes to Windows
settings or other software settings that coinicided with the first occurrence
of my problem. No new programs were installed nor uninstalled. Help!!
