ie 8 not opening links

I have windows 7 pro upgrade clean install and ie 8 will not open most links on the web page is their a fix for this? thank you

 

Thanks for the post and I'm sorry for the wrong forum I'm a newbe
I have done the windows no add on and have managed to do the reset. internet explore will open some links but not all if I use cometbird and the same links work but comet will not work on some of my training websites that use onlt IE. as soon as I clinck on the link that leads to another page or document the yellow error sign come on the bottom of page if i do the properties of the link and put it in the address it will then take me to that page. this totaly baffels me

 

Try enabling compatibility mode. It is the broken page icon next to the refresh button on the toolbar. Here’s a good resource from the IEBlog that talks about compatibility mode in detail if you’d like to learn more: http://blogs.msdn.com/ie/archive/2009/02/16/just-the-facts-recap-of-compatibility-view.aspx

If that doesn’t work, run IE in No Add-ons Mode. Go to Start -> All Programs -> Accessories -> System Tools -> Internet Explorer (No Add-ons) - If this fixes the issue, then go to Tools -> Manage Add-ons and enable the add-ons one by one to find which one was causing the problem.

If you’re still not having any luck, I recommend you reinstall IE8 on your system.
