Outlook XP (not Outlook Express) refuses to send working (i.e., clickable) links. If I am on a webpage, say www.google.ca for example, & go to File > Send > Link by Email, the link shown in Outlook (in the email about to be sent) appears as www.google. The ".ca" is missing from the end of the url. Thus, when the recipient of my email atempts to click on the link I sent, he gets a "bad" page. This happpens whether its .com, .net, or what ever is on the end of the url I send.
I have a feeling this is related to security settings. I may have fiddled around with them, but it was a very long time ago & can't remember what I did.
Anyone have any suggestions?

Mr.Guvernment, that's exactly what I see too! Any idea on how to fix? Damn silly that I can't even send a link to a web page. This doesn't happen with Outlook Express.
i am, still looking around for an actual way to do it, instead of a reg hack, you would THINK they would let YOU choose the security on your own computer..lol
Check out this utility to do it. It also appears to be free, so that's handy.
