unable to update
Posted by LuvToGoFast on August 31st, 2004


A couple of different programs that are on my xp machine are set to
auto notify me of updates. they do this but i am unable to get a
browser to open when i click on "ok" when the programs ask me if i
want to update. One of the programs is zona alarm pro and i cannot
find a fix on the site. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Just to follow up, I do not seem to be able to click on any external
links that are supposed to open up IE. I do remember seeing a fix a
while ago, but i do not remember it. HELP please.



Mike

Now try it again. If it still fails to work, then look here:

Another reported cure is to click Start, Run. In the run box, type
"regsvr32 urlmon.dll" without the quotes and press Enter. Then open
Internet Explorer and go to Tools, Internet Options, "Programs" tab,
and click on "Reset Web Settings...", click "Apply", "OK"

click the link, nothing may happen.
