Still looking nito the exact cause but i found that by holding down the
"Ctrl" key while clicking on the link seems to help.

I know that the3 "Ctrl" key is a way to temporarly stop the popup and script
blocker from running on a page.

The laughing must be what caused this to be posted as an 'orphan'. Did
the original post disappear in the laughter ?

Then the installed popup/script blocker is what's causing the issue, no?
Would you please post what it is so that others who are also afflicted
with this issue may know ? Thanks.

I found that this can be fixed by disabling all the add-ons for IE (Start >
Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Internet Explorer (No Add-ons).
Then, I went into Internet Options > Programs > Manage add-ons playing with
each add-on on the list. I found that things show up on Windows Update
correctly after I had "BitComet Helper" disabled.
I suggest people having this issue playing with add-ons by disabling each
single one of them at a time in order to find out which one is the killer.

My laptop is running on Windows XP SP2 with IE7.
