I have lost the ability to click onto webpage address in an e-mail(I think
these are called Hyperliks and are usually in blue type and underlined,) Can
anyone assist in helping me to recover this facility?
thanks

Since you didn't mention what email client you are using, here is
information about both Outlook and Outlook Express:

For OE: Credit to MVP Frank Saunders - from
http://www.fjsmjs.com/OE/nolinks.htm

Open Windows Explorer.
Go to Tools | Folder Options | File Types.
Scroll down to URL:HyperText Transfer Protocol and select it.
Click Edit or Advanced, depending on your Windows version.
Select 'open'.
Click Edit.

"Application used to perform this action" should read:

"C:\PROGRAM FILES\INTERNET EXPLORER\iexplore.exe" -nohome
(Check the path to iexplore.exe to make sure that is correct and use the
double quotes.)

DDE should be checked and in the boxes below it you should have:

#1:
"%1",,-1,0,,,,
#2
IExplore
#3 (blank)
#4
WWW_OpenURL

URL:HyperText Transfer Protocol with Privacy should be the same.
Sometimes it is necessary to uncheck Use DDE. If that doesn't fix it,
go to Start>Run and type

regsvr32 urlmon.dll [enter]

For Outlook:

Open Internet Explorer, Tools, Internet Options, Programs tab. Choose
Reset Web Settings. Click OK and close the dialog. Then, from
Start/Run, type this command and press Enter: regsvr32 /i shdocvw.dll

If nothing helps, inspect the htmlfile and http associations in the
registry, as per KB310049:

OL2002: Error Message: This Operation Has Been Cancelled Due to
Restrictions in Effect on this Computer:

Would the subject of the posting you're responding to give you a hint as to
what email client the OP is using? 🙂 <LOL>
