Hello everyone,
I've been running into trouble when trying to open some links (i.e. the media preferences popup window in Gamespot, ringtone quicktime play for previewing ringtones). When I click on the link, there is no response from Internet Explorer, whatsoever. When I open the link in a new window, I get the usual "This Page Cannot Be Displayed" message, and the address looks something like "javascript:launch...(...)." When I try to access the link from my desktop, an Explorer window pops up for an instant, and then disapears. I've tried disabling and re-enabling my firewall, pop-up blocker, and javascript settings (through Internet Options), but nothing has worked. I've also been able to access these links on a friend's computer who is on my wireless network. Does anyone have any suggestions?
