Outlook won't allow me to click on embedded links in an email

[Bruce]

Something happened recently that is frustrating. In Outlook, when I click on
an embedded link in an email sent to me from a trusted sender, I receive the
following error message. "This operation has been canceled due to
restrictions in effect on this computer." Then it says something like contact
your administer ... and I am the administer.

I checked my firewall as well as IE-7, and Firefox 2.0 settings under
Internet and cannot find anything different. This is frustrating because I
cannot click on a link any more. I have to use the editor to copy the link's
URL address and then paste it in my browser. This just happened about a month
ago after I installed IE-7 so I am beginning to wonder if it is something in
the new settings that is a default, but can't understand why it effects
Outlook.

Any help would be appreciated.
