are you running Nortons or any other anti-virus software? Sometimes those will not let you click email links.

Norton, but I could always click on them until a few weeks back. I figure I must have done something, and now it's getting to piss me off.

back up all your data with a floppy. Do it now as I think
you are close to ruined. Thats the first sign of a major
system malfunction and virus combo.
