I'm computer stupid..I need some help please..

I am running Outlook Express 6 and Internet Explorer 6

When I get an email in OE and there is a hyperlink in the body, I click on it and it won't open the browser and get to the link. Nothing happens. It used to be that I had to have the browser already open in another window and when I hit the link, it would open a new window and go to that site. Now, nothing..

I checked my pop up blocker and that wasn't it. I checked the box for IE to see if it was the primary browser and that wasn't it. I checked the Help file and couldn't find what I was looking for..I did find the site in my "blocked email" area in OE, removed it and that wasn't it since it's doing it for all sites..

Have any ideas other than switching browsers, email programs, drawing down on it or giving it a dose of Tannerite?
