|  dang internet explorer! links don't work!! ideas? Okay, this is it: sometime this afternoon links in Internet Explorer stopped working correctly. Very suddenly. I've looked all over for help, but can only find postings for IE link problems in Win XP. I'm on a G4, OS X. When i click on a link, I get the box usually seen if a command + click is involved: - Internet Explorer Help - Open link in new window - Download link to disk - etc. Links work fine in Netscape. Unfortunately, I can't confine myself to Netscape. Anyone have any ideas? Any help is appreciated- this is driving me crazy! |

|  My best advice: Stop using Internet Explorer. Suggestions for alternate browsers: Safari Camino Firefox Mozilla This is not being fanboy-ish or anti-Microsoft, IE is the least kept up of all OSX browsers. It is the quality mark that all browsers must be above in order to be even considered worthwhile.

| I agree With g2orburst on this one... firefox IS mozilla, right? I personally recommend FIREFOX! Thats what I use, and it works great, and has a nice popup blocker. IE is victim to a shitload of pop ups... believe u me lol/ Al

| thanks for input! and yet... thanks, guys. yeah, i know, microsoft sucks raw eggs. (and i did just download the latest netscape and safari... i guess i needed the added incentive.) and yet... i'm a web designer and i need to test on all major platforms and browsers, so i'd still like to solve this problem. if anyone else has any ideas...  |
