More IE5.5 troubles

I am not sure if IE5 did this before installing SP2 or what, but whenever I click on a link that is supposed to open a new browser window (such as a link in hotmail), nothing happens. Actually, if I right click on any link and say open link in new window, the same lack of action occurs.

Also, on some program setup files (adobe acrobat for example), I go to run the setup.exe, and nothing happens. This has only occurred on my new machine running win2k SP2, and I am sure its not the program, because identical instances occur with many setup files, and they have worked before.
 
Anyone know what the deal is? ;(
