    Links don't open in browser?

    Hi

    This is probably related to Live Mail but maybe Chrome, I'm not sure what is going on.

    When I click on a link in mail, Chrome opens, and the page sits there loading forever.

    If I copy the link from the top of the page and paste it into a new tab it opens instantly, while the other page is still sitting there loading.

    This is exactly the same link it both tabs!

    I have no idea what could cause this.

    Anyone have any ideas?

    Mike

    probably not related but it may be worth a try. i have firefox and since a few days ago i click a link in mail and it'll take forever loading. i click the stop button, the the reload button and the page loads. you can try what i've been doing to see if you have a similar problem in chrome.

    Hi Mike,

    Have you checked in your Chrome "options" settings on how/where links are opened?
