Trouble connecting to links

I hope I am not in the wrong section to be posting this.
I am having troble posting to different links like if I am in MSN homepage and try to open something on Bing it will do nothing. Most all links I am having no luck opening. I have ran scans with Norton, and AVG and have found nothing. I tried Malwarebytes and it found nothing. I have Windows 7. I just had an upgrade from Internet Explorer a few days before I started having my problem. Could that be it? I could sure use some help, and I would appreciate any help given. Thanks a lot.

Hello Binkyboy.

Yes, you posted in the right place.

I googled your problem and found the following Microsoft help.
Don't know if this will help?

You cannot open a new Internet Explorer window or nothing occurs after you click a link

 

It won`t let me open your link......weird....

 

Here is the process as listed in that Microsoft Support article:

 

Tried your post on all the dll`s and none worked. Thanks for trying to help anyway. I really appreciate it.

Thank you,
Dennis

 

Sorry that did not work.

My first thought was that it is due to a broken file type association, but the MS Support page suggested otherwise.

The default program associated with extension HTML is Internet Explorer.

I have not used Windows 7 so I can't tell you from experience how to do this, but I think you need to
check and possibly reset the HTM and HTML association.

Sorry, forgot you can't use the links. :-o rolleyes

You can use copy / paste to put each address in the address field of a new tab:

In the meantime, you could use K-Meleon browser - it's small and fast.
