| | Error message when clicking on embedded link Hi, I recently in stalled WLM and up to now it works fine. The only problem I am dealing with is that I am getting an error message when clicking on an embedded link in my emails. The message I get says that "Windows cannot find the link. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and try again. To search for a file, click the Start button, and then click Search." While displaying this message the links opens the web browser and displays the correct webpage. The odd thing is that, when one page is already open on my web browser, the links are working fine. It just opens a second tab and the link is displayed. I am using Windows XP Pro and FireFox as my web browser. Is there a way to get rid of this error message or is this a bug in the program? Thanks for any help/suggestion, Eddy |

| | Re: Error message when clicking on embedded link That's a Firefox issue. I believe the Firefox forum has a fix for that. -- Gary VanderMolen, MS-MVP (WLMail) "EddyDel5" <EddyDel5@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:1E7D107B-12E2-49E1-83DE-442E47827E36@xxxxxx Quote: > Hi, > > I recently in stalled WLM and up to now it works fine.

The only thing I did was "upgrading" to WLM and since that time, I am getting the error message? Regards, Eddy |

| | Re: Error message when clicking on embedded link So you're running XP rather than Vista? I don't know.
