Windows Forum / Outlook Express / Stationery / May 2004Clicking on Outlook Express URL link crashes IE ..
This has really been a pain in the butt for the past 4 months for me. Does ANYONE have an idea or can point me to a resource to resolve this? Anytime I click on a URL in an email within OE, I get a Microsoft pop-up that says that an error occured. Module: Unknown. I suspect it's some kind of spyware or virus that's causing it, but my spyware and virus checker reveals nothing on my system. Any help would be greatly appreciated. JK If you have a popup stopper installed Joe that is what could cause this to happen...... hold down the control key and go back and view the post again and you should get the website...... once the website appears, you can let go of the control key :) Annie Annie, I do have a pop-up installed, but holding the Ctrl key down doesn't stop the problem. The pop-up is the XP error report, that asks if you want to send the report to Microsoft. If I click the Don't Send button, it kills the error window AND Internet Explorer. Thank you.

I see that your version of OE is an older version. I am running 6.00.2800.1123 and you are running 6.00.2800.1106 > This has really been a pain in the butt for the past 4 months for me. > Does ANYONE have an idea or can point me to a resource to [quoted text clipped - 10 lines] > > JK Checking now, and will update OE. I'll post later to let you know if this resolves the problems I've been having. Thank you for the tip. Joe > When was the last time you ran Windows Update?

Now you need to get the rest of the updates for IE/OE. You are showing version 1106 (last 4 numbers) and the latest versioin from Microsoft is 1409. I hope you aren't on dialup, as these updates can be a real time consumer.... :o( Wayne > I installed the XP SP1, and so far no problems! > [quoted text clipped - 21 lines] > > > > > > > > > > JK |
