When I see shortcuts posted on the forum to soundclips or links anywhere else for that matter, I click on the link & I always get a message "This page cannot be found", Yet if I right click on the link copy it , then bring up Mozilla Firefox, & paste it in there, then the links & sound clips come up..
Is there something I can change in Internet Explorer to bring up all links?
Thanks in advance |

Check your internet security or advanced settings. You may have a box checked preventing your browser from downloading the links or browsing across URLs.

A Microsoft security patch may be causing that behaviour. I had that happen to me earlier in this year and had to uninstall the patch to get IE to behave normally. I'll try to see if I can find which patch number it was.
Also, try making IE your default browser and reset the home and search pages to default, and see if that fixes it.
