How to remove underlining on Outlook Today page?

AD

Hi!

On my Outlook Today page I get times, Appointments and Tasks
underlined (actually everything underlined, which makes the Today page
difficult to read. Is there any way to remove the undelining?

Please see the picture of what I'm talking about:

Did you install IE 8? I found this on microsoft.public.internetexplorer.beta

Well - it appears that the default option in IE8 is to underline all
links it sees. Since Outlook Today is hooked up to HTML rendered by
IE8, that option does affect Outlook Today. In fact, it probably
affects your HTML viewing pleasure in IE8 (all links underlined) - and
it doesn't seem to be such big of a problem...

To switch the underline thing off... In IE8,
Go to Tools --> Internet Options
Go to the Advanced tab
Scroll down, under the Browsing section, there should be a section
called Underline links, with 3 options:
- Always
- Hover
- Never
The default one that it selected is Always. I usually like the link to
be underline when my cursor is on top of the link - so I choose Hover.
Feel free to choose Never if that suits you better.

Click Apply and then OK (or just OK if that's what you like to do).

The effects should be immediate - in IE8 and Outlook Today without
restarting them.

Hope it works.

:
Is it just me or is anyone else seeing all the text/links in outlook
today
page (2007) are all underlined after installing Internet Explorer 8 Beta
2??

Wasn't like this before. Not a big deal but just aesthetically annoying.

Also Microsoft should have added spell checking in typed text, like how
firefox does it, very useful.

Thank you, Jan! It was indeed IE8

You're welcome. Sorry the link to the newsgroup is still wrong.
It must be:
news://news.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.internetexplorer.beta

The 'news' scheme is only for newsgroups:

If you need the server address, use 'nntp':
nntp://news.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.internetexplorer.beta

Both these are working for me.

Didn't know that. What is the difference? Are both opening in Outlook
Express?

And news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.internetexplorer.beta works
fine for me as well.
