When using Internet Explorer, if I want to contact someone and they have a link to press that should open up a new message in Outlook instead the PC goes doo lally and opens up 53 pages of IE all with an error message.

Is this likely to be a bug with IE or something wrong with the PC?

And does anyone know how I can fix it please as it is a bit annoying...!

Oh Boy !!! :rolleyes:
