I have Win7 loaded on two computers, 1 Desktop and 1 Laptop. When I use IE and try to click on a link it will not open it, but if I hold down the CTRL key and then click on the link it works fine except that it opens in a new tab. Any ideas what can be causing this?

RE: Which sites don't open...
www.komotv.com
www.msn.com
Link Removed
www.microsoft.com
zooming in on an image of a posted item on Ebay does not open unless I hold down the CTRL Key when clicking on the Link.
Other than that I think Microsoft has done a bang up job on Win7.
Thanks

P.S.
Infact once I posted this comment and attempted to click on the active links for the sites that I listed they would not come up unless I held down the CTRL key when clicking on the link.

OOHHHH ... no wonder.. you didn't say you were trying to load the links from another web page. I see this all the time. Your popup blocker is set too strong..... or some kind of security deal... the links are trying to open in some kind of funny way... like a popup..
I'll bet you can right click on any of them that don't work and select "open in NEW window" and sail on.
You probably don't notice the small bar ... right under favorites ... that asks you if you want to allow the popups. which are the web pages actually trying to open.
