Steve - I sent you the sample PowerPoint file via email. Thanks for your help.

The email address I use here is bogus ( spam deflection mechanism ).
Besides, my having a local copy of the presentation won't tell us much ... we'd need to see
it posted to the same host as you're having problems with.

The system we're currently using is for college instructors. The links don't
work on their presentations, as well as the ones I created locally on the
system. Unfortunately I cannot post an instructor's file, but I could create
a sample presentation if that would be helpful. When working on the problem,
I created a one slide presentation of just a few links and experienced the
same trouble.

Please do create and post one where we can see it.
If nothing else, that'll make it possible to learn whether the problem is in some way
localized (your particular security settings/browser/whatever) or more universal.

I tried wiping out the cache and temp files, but I am still experiencing the

Do you have an example file you could post somewhere so we can get a look at it?

Hi, I'm using Power Point 2003 on an HP laptop. I've been experiencing a
number of problems with Internet hyperlinks not opening in IE. At first the
links would not open at all, but after changing the HTM file association back
to Internet Explorer I have encountered a new problem. The links try to load
the webpages from the Temporary Internet Files directory.

What happens if you clear the browser's cache?

Does it solve the problem completely or at least get you one new download of the
needed URL?
