I have this problem since I use Vista and Windows Mail and it seems it's not Internet Explorer related, because it doesn't exist with Outlook Express and IE7/8. I think most of you know the feature some forums have, you get an eMail notice about a new posting in a thread you're watching. These notices usually contain a link to the new posting.
clicking on that url opens IE (or FF) and it directs you to the new posting. But when I click on it using Windows Mail in Vista (and I use IE) it opens the thread page in the forum that contains the new posting, but doesn't directly show it, so I often have to scroll till I found it. I noticed that IE just opens this url:
That means, the last part 208112 is missing and that's the reason why it just shows the current page (scrolled to top), but not the posting itself. Does anyone of you have a solution for that problem? I think it's kinda annoying, especially when there's more than 1 new posting in a forum
Anybody notice how if you put URLs in HTML emails, they don't work? The HTML code adds a lot of alphanumeric stuff in front of the URL so it can't be located. I don't recall this problem prior to Vista Mail. So, if I want to be sure they'll work I'll have to turn off the HTML. Or, I'll save it as a draft then see if the URLS work- if they work in the draft folder, they'll usually work OK.
for the past few days, desktop shortcuts won't access urls. have deleted / replaced short cuts same problem, also have problems accessing url in open email so0me open others don't. when clicking shortcut get error---=no program associated to preform this operation. have scanned computer with norton and avg no problems detected
When I drag a URL from a browser to my Vista Ultimate Desktop, it creates an icon, but clicking on that icon brings up a file location and not the web site. Older Bookmarks or Shortcuts I saved from before this Vista machine, work fine. But ones created by dragging a link or url from a Browser to the desktop don't work.
When I bring up in any browser, and drag the link to the desktop, then clicking on the shortcut on the desktop (or in a folder too) I get the following (I've replaced my name): file:///C:/Users/My%Name/Documents/Desktop/Welcome%20to%20the%20Montgomery%20County%20Maryland%20Website.URL The properties of the shortcut show no Web tab. The Location in the General Tab shows "C:UsersMy Name....[etc.]. It does show to open with my browser. The Details Tab shows the Folder Path as "C:Users...[etc.] and finally! The Computer is listed as the correct URL web address I have seen other discussions on dragging and dropping to the Vista Desktop not working listed on this site (found using Google) but couldn't bring them up in the search from within this Support site.
I want to ask a question on the subject of HDD image b/ups (Paragon Drive Backup 9 Pro) and the size of the images produced. the question is not about the Paragon Software but rather image size Vs disk content. Is this the right forum, or should I go elsewhere?
I've had no luck at the Thunderbird forum. And this is one of those situations I find it hard to believe I'm inventing the wheel. Surely others have tackled this one. I tried one more measure this morning after googling around a bit: I told Vista to search hidden files and folders. But it still isn't finding my Thunderbird emails. A few days ago someone suggested going to microsoft and looking for an add-in or plugin. I didn't find anything there searching "thunderbird."
I access microsoft.public.windows.vista.general through Google and all the messages appear. When I use Outlook and attach to msnews.microsoft.com,messages are deleted for content. Is there a way to access the vista.general group through Google using Outlook Express? The display is much better and the messages are presented better.

I' running Vista an a new HP Pavilion Laptop, with Firefox as my browser. Everything is falling into place, but when I open this Forum it is so small that I must Zoom in at least three times to get it large enough to read! I don't have this problem with anything else, that I know of. How can I get this site to open in readable size??
I want to attach photographs to a fordforum.com.au post and the size limit for uploading is 146.5 KB. How do I resize the photograph, while keeping the original in its actual size?
When I get an email for a new forum post, the hypertext looks like this... 'NEFGA :: View topic - Going to unread forum posts' But when I click the link, what shows up in the browser is - 'NEFGA :: View topic - Going to unread forum posts' Instead of taking me to the post for that message, it takes me to the top of the page the post is on. Why is the 65341 being dropped off.If tried clicking on the same hypertext in other applications such as Word and do not have the same problem.I'm using Firefox.
Admittedly I may have done something to cause this but I can not get it right: Vista Home premium, 32 bit. New User, new PC. Had all data and music files on external HDD's. Moved data (documents, pictures) over last week, and moved Music files over to C drive today.
On Taskbar, at Start button, click on button, On right side of Start menu there are: under my picture, choices for "Me (user)", Documents, Pictures, Music, Games, then a divide and then, Search, Recent Items, Computer and so on. If I click on Documents I go to the folder with files of documents. Same with Pictures. The files from both Documents and Pictures came from an external HDD.............
I have a new Dell and am using a Sprint Mobile Broadband connection and can't access this forum (using my Cox connection now.) It displays that "Internet Explorer Can't Display the Webpage." Do you think that is Sprint's fault or something in my Vista settings causing this. Probably Sprint as I CAN access it using Cox. But I want to make sure before I call them....
