Hi !
I have just upgraded to high speed internet but I had to upgrade my old windows 98.
I went for Windows XP home but since I had it running I have noticed the following.
If I click on a link that should get me a pop up window, all I get is an empty windows explorer window.
Anynone has any idea how I can re activate the function to its full working condition ?

Many thanks

What is the URL of the link? Is it an advert?

Well not anyone in particular.
For example if I get an email with a web link, when usually all I had to do was to click onn it and get directed to it, now nothing happen.
If I click on a banner on pprune, all I get is the Microsoft Internet Explorer box but empty.

Any more thougths ??

Sounds like a missing or incorrect file. Try the following Microsft Knowledge Base link:

Oooopppsss! Thats assuming you can access the web elsewhere!!

Thanks Take3call5 and What_does. Couldn't follow the link but after entering and following the procedure to download and re install MI Explorer, the problem seem to have gone away.

Cheers
