Vista and Office 2007 E-mal Links

I have Vista and Office 2007. I cannot open links in my email. It says that
I cannot open it because of restrictions on my computer, and to contact my
administrator. I AM the administrator, and did not tell it to do this. How
can I make these links open in my e-mail?

In Vista nobody is the administrator as long as UAC is on ;-)

Check the Options in Outlook, I bet there are some related to security.

if it again fails I would suggest you post this topic in a office newsgroup.

Do you mean links to Web pages?
Email program?
What browser are you using?

E-mails containing links to web pages. I am using IE7, and Outlook 2007.

This, I believe is related to Firefox. If you go into the default programs
settings and set IE to be the default again it should fix itself.

I wasn't aware that this was still a problem in the RTM version of Vista or
Office.

Thanks, but I don't have Firefox. IE is set as the default program. I tried
that about 4 hours ago!

Control Panel | Programs | Default Programs | Set your default programs
Choose Internet Explorer and click Set this program as default.

Multiposted If you must post to more than one newsgroup, crosspost.
