Outlook emails only work with IE on the 'web server' - you could install and use a mail fetching program (which is what Outlook actually is), or you can use IE to fetch the mail.

SOURCE: Clicking on links in email don't work

Links in an email in the Junk folder will never work. It is set this way to protect you. However if you are clicking a link in an email in the Inbox, right click the link and then click "Open Hyperlink". Once you do that the links on emails in your Inbox should work from now on. If not, is IE your default browser? If not make it so. If that does not work open Internet Options >> Control Panel >> Programs Tab >> Reset Web Settings.

Hi there.

Does this only happen when you click the unsubscribe link from email? What about opening the browser directly?

Please let me know.

SOURCE: how do i check if I have mozilla-firefoz on my computer.

Well William, you did not specify what operating system you have. My guess is Windows. If you have Vista or 7, press the start key and type firefox. Look under all programs.

SOURCE: I am continuing to recieve Windows update error 9C48 and I am unable to fix error

Hello,
http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=23332
Instructions:

  1. Uninstall IE9, if you already have it installed, and restart the computer.
  2. Download the installer.
  3. Disconnect from the internet. This is important because the installer attempts to download the latest, bad binaries from Windows Update.
  4. Let the install finish, and restart.
  5. Reconnect to the internet and check Windows Update. If all went well, you should be able to see the Cumulative Update for IE9, instead of IE9 itself.
Thanks

Testimonial: "Chirag Patel. Thank you for your reply. May I please ask additional help on the IE unistall? If I go to About internet explorer, my computer states I have IE11, however I have no IE11 update installed. The last IE update I have is for IE10. IE9 came pre-installed on my computer at purchase. If I go to uninstall IE9, will that also get rid of IE10, and correctly set the right version of IE on my computer? One mistake I made was to select to upgrade to IE11 via Yahoo when asked. When I now open IE, the desciption now reads, IE provided by Yahoo. Will the unistall of IE9 remove all residual files of any updates not related to IE9, and also freeing up that disk space? Thank You sincerely."

Outlook Express 6 - Address book failed to load

The WAB file may have become damaged or corrupted causing one or both of the above error messages. You will need to rename the existing .wab file and restart Outlook Express(OE). Once started, OE will create a new .WAB file. Microsoft does not recommend that you import the data from the old, damaged .wab file. If you do, you may import the damage into the new .wab file.
1. Click Start, point to Find (Search on Windows 2000 or newer operating systems), and click For Files or Folders.
2. In Search for files or folders named, type. *.wab and click Search Now.
3. In the Search results window, Right-click the file(s) with an extension of ".wab" and then click Rename.
4. Rename the file extension (the three left-most characters in the name) to "old" and press ENTER.
If you are still experiencing the issue after applying this fix you can try Address Book Recovery http://www.oemailrecovery.com/address-book-recovery.html
