IE problem with windows 7

Has anyone had problems clicking on links in IE with windows 7?
Firefox and Chrome work fine.

No problems here.
Disable all addons and see if that helps?

Hi Steve

I tried that and it didn't work.
I turned off protected mode in security and now links like the ones at the bottom of your posts work

I cant leave that off though so i guess i will be converting to a firefox fan.

Aridzone have you tried keeping protected mode but adding specific sites to your Trusted sites?

In the past week I have experienced problems with IE8 on Win7 home 64bit where some sites I tried to go to would not come up. The message was similar to when my router wasn't up or the cable company was down. It only happened on certain sites. I would go to Firefox and the sites came up just fine. After rebooting, the sites would appear just fine in IE8. I suspect there might be an issue. I haven't had it happen in a couple of days and I have received a couple of windows updates so maybe they fixed it. Good idea to have Firefox, if for nothing else as backup if IE acts up.

Do you have 64-bit? I do and I cannot successfully use IE or Adobe Flash. After research it is the 64-bit, neither Adobe nor MS has fixed it last I tried (about early May) and it is a known issue according the the tech sites I had researched on. I have successfully used Chrome, FF and Opera, although FF keeps wanting me to install Adobe recently, so I have to go figure how to stop that.

I have had the odd issue with IE8 on Win7. I don't think it's a Windows problem, I think it's an IE8 problem.
