Hyperlinks in emails in Windows mail won't work.

I have just got a new Vista computer, with lovely new Outlook loaded
onto it. But,when I click on a link sent in an email, I get an error
message telling me it won't go to the link and to ask my administrator
for help. I am the administrator and I don't know what to do about it!
Its an admin account, and so I am surprised I am limited in this way.
Please help? what setting do I need to change to bypass this? Many
thanks.
