IE8 strange link

whenever I click on a link to open in a new browser window, the new window
opens momentarily, gives an error message and then is redirected to the
intended destination. I found that the link of the error window is
res://ieframe.dll/navcancl.htm

Any idea on what this link is?

Thank you for your help.
-----------
WIN 7, IE 8

It always amazes me how almost no one searches through earlier posts to
see if their issue has been already addressed:

Do you have the same experience when you start Internet Explorer from
the 'no add-ons' icon?

Start > type Internet Explorer in the Start Search box > click Internet
Explorer (No Add-Ons)

Do you have the same experience after you have reset Internet Explorer
settings?

Problems with Internet Explorer can also be caused by by malicious
software ('malware') that you have unwittingly installed on your computer.

Assuming Win7 64-bit, see the Answer post by OnyXxL in this thread:
http://social.answers.microsoft.com/...b-b69b8535a7bb

What anti-virus application or security suite is installed and is your
subscription current? What anti-spyware applications (other than Defender)?
What third-party firewall (if any)?

Has a(another) Norton or McAfee application ever been installed on the
computer (e.g., a free-trial version that came preinstalled when you bought
it)?

Did you run the BAT file in OnyXxL's post and did it correct the problem?

Did a Norton or McAfee (free trial) application come preinstalled on the
computer when you bought it?
