Kind of hard to explain: I have windows 98 SET for 800x600 and true color 32 bit.  Recently formated past december.  Changed ISP'S from Local to PeoplePc.com.

There might be a setting that I don't know about that needs attention.

Noticed also when I am on another forum that I associated with and when there is a URL Address for us to click to go to another direction I get a little RED hand like it was saying "No" and a buzz sound.  I can copy the address and pasted into the address bar and that works but I shouldn't have to do this.

I think it might have something to do with Peoplepc but I have not had any success in calling them so you know how that goes!!

I am checking out there site but no information.  It could be their blocker.And you are using what for adware/spyware/virus protection? You have to start with a clean system.I am using "spybot SEARCH and destroy and Ad-Aware SE PERSONAL and People PC has it's on blocker and virus control.

HarryThey may be protecting you from yourself.  

What if you hold the mouse cursor  over the link to see what it is (look right above START next to the IE icon). Then type it in by hand and see if you can get to the same site via this other method. :DGot it all figured out!!

It was my Pop up and my Acceleration Level with People PC.  For blurry pictures I needed to slow down the acceration to level 1 and to MAKE the url's work turn off the pop up.  Thanks for the interested person above for showing interest but you made me think it through.

HarryGlad you are up and running. That is the performance hit you take for acceleration.
