Need a little help with Outlook express.

I'm on my dads machine(pentium 233,Win95,IE5.5,Outlook express5) and I am having trouble going to links that are on some of his emails(Bday card and things). The links are blue and the curser turns to the hand when I go over the link but when I click, nothing. The adress shows up for the link at the bottom and I can copy and paste the link and I can go to the web page. I have searched the options folder in OE but can not find anything to turn on/off.

I hope I'm posting in the right forum. Thanks for any replies.
