Hyperlinks don't work in Outlook 2003....... Error Message pops up.
I've got a problem that is driving me crazy and I can't seem to find an answer to it anywhere I look.
I've searched the forum and find answers to similar questions but they don't resolve the issue I have.
When in mail and reading a messge I'll click on a hyperlink and I get the following error message "This operation has been cancelled due to restrictions in effect on this computer. Please contact your system administrator." No hyperlinkinks in Outlook work.
I was using IE 7 as a browser and blew it away to see if it was the problem. I downloaded Firefox 2 and the hyperlinks still don't work, which leaves me to believe the problem is not with the browser.
In my view there has to be a software switch somewhere to control ths function, but I don't know where to look.
Help!

It sounds like your network administrator has disabled links in Outlook. Is this on a work PC? If so, you'll prob'ly have to go through your help desk.

Jillyn is right. If you are on a domain you may be login to a domain user account. You may be in the group with no internet access.
Looks like the following registry key is either missing or corrupt:
