When I clicked on a hyperlink it used to work but now for some reason it has stopped. It will work only if I copy and paste the link.

do this

- Go to Start -> Run -> Type regsvr32 urlmon.dll
- Once complete click Ok.

Now try the link again, this should work. If not, do the same for these also - Start, run and type the following as above 1 by one

Regsvr32 Shdocvw.dll
Regsvr32 Shdocvw.dll
Regsvr32 Msjava.dll
Regsvr32 Actxprxy.dll
Regsvr32 Oleaut32.dll
Regsvr32 Browseui.dll

And if you are using XP, do this one last
Regsvr32 Shell32.dll

This should resolve issue, post back

The problem was much easier to solve than that I just went to internet explorer tools internet options and set Internet Explorer as the default and it solved the problem. I had downloaded Google Chrome and went back to Google and lost the hyperlink option but I have now restored it through exploring...
Thanks but I didn't try your suggestion as it was already solved
