Internet Explorer not responding to some links

Since yesterday I find that in Internet Explorer (on the Desktop) SOME links on many websites don't work when I click them. If I open the same pages in Google Chrome, the links work fine.

Does anyone know of a current Internet Explorer issue that might be causing this?

Hi Dragon Drop

I would suggest checking out this Microsoft topic with some troubleshooting tips/fixes.

Nothing happens when you click a link in Internet Explorer

I think I've found the problem. I had turned on IE's "popup blocker" yesterday. Now I've turned it off and all links seem to be working again.

I hope MS knows that their popup blocker is also acting as a link blocker!
