Internet Explorer 7

Hi all,
When I click on a hyperlink in an e-mail, it opens an new IE7 window, loads
the default web pages but not the one the hyperlink was pointing to. Appears
not to be transfering the hyperlink URL to IE.

Any ideas as to why?

Windows version?

Post an example of the link and the URL that loads when you open the link.

Hi,
Using XP

This link for example was in the e-mail I received pointing me to the reply
to my original post here.

Link:
href="http://www.microsoft.com/wn3/aspx/notifauth.aspx?url=http://www..microsoft.com/communities/newsgroups/list/en-us/default.aspx%3fdg%3dmicrosoft.public.internetexplo rer.general%26mid%3d74e3957f-d534-4d55-af99-3962d23ff3ac"

Is that the only type of link that does this? If so, these links in Email
Notifications of replies to your posts have been buggy since early January.

All the information is there for you to get to your thread:

http://www.microsoft.com/communities...9-3962d23ff3ac


E.g. first strip of the prefix (down to the url=). Then notice that there is
a double dot where one should be so delete one. Then replace all
the escaped hex values with their ASCII characters (%3F = ? %3D = =
%26 = &) Use the charmap utility to see how these values are associated
with those characters.
