Confirm that you don't have pop-up blockers installed on your system, might be that. Only other thing is to reset IE settings back to default.

Go to Tools, Internet Options, Advanced tab, click on Restore Defaults.

See if that works.

Otherwise you can right click the link and Copy Shortcut, then paste it in, this will work with most URLs unless it's something like java or flash.

Go to Start / Uitvoeren
Then enter regsvr32 urlmon.dll
Click Ok when finished

If that single change does not resolve the problem, repeat the process by running the following additional entries:
regsvr32 Shdocvw.dll
regsvr32 Msjava.dll
regsvr32 Actxprxy.dll
regsvr32 Oleaut32.dll
regsvr32 Mshtml.dll
regsvr32 Browseui.dll
regsvr32 Shell32.dll (Windows XP and Windows 2000 only)

There have been several instances where the previous tip using regsrv32 does not solve the problem with hyperlinks not working.
In this case try:

Open Internet Explorer
Go to Tools / Internet Options
Click on the Programs tab
Click on the Reset Web Settings button
