Cannot open some links

I clicked a bad page the other day and installed some malware. I [carefully] removed them manually, but perhaps I deleted a wrong registry key. Anyway, I'm left a little bit lame as I cannot open some links or pages, and I cannot restore previous versions
of Windows.
Win 7 home
IE 11
Issues:
1. Wikipedia .png images will not respond at all to a left-click. I can open them by right-clicking.
2. wordpress.com the reader link and a few other links hang.
generates the error Line: 4235
== Error: The system cannot find the file specified.
The line of code is ... if( !window.localStorage ){
3. System restore would not restore previous versions. It was unchecked in system, and I have since re-enabled it and allocated space. I have not tested it.
actions performed:
- Googled for a day and a half
- tried re-registering dlls
- checked file associations
- reset security and settings in IE
- ran IE with no add ons
- ran IE in safe mode
- rolled back to IE 10 and reinstalled IE 11 (with much pain with failing updates needing manual uninstallations)
I am now at a loss at what to try next for the IE issues. Any help or ideas will be appreciated. I'd rather not reinstall or upgrade right now.
Thanks
John

Hi Power Unit.
Considering the machine has been injected by some malware,I suggested you to perform a full scan with the antivirus software in safe mode to have a double check .
According to your description ,it seems that there is something wrong with system files.We can run "sfc /scannow"to have a health check of the system files.
I noticed you have tried to reinstall the Internet Explorer 11 .How did you do that ?
We can run the following command line to uninstall the Internet Explorer 11 and then download it to install it .
"FORFILES /P %WINDIR%\servicing\Packages /M Microsoft-Windows-InternetExplorer-*11.*.mum /c "cmd /c echo Uninstalling package @fname && start /w pkgmgr /up:@fname /quiet /norestart"
Internet Explorer 11 for Windows 7

If the issue persists ,we may need to do a in-place upgrade to have a repair .We may lose some configurations.Here is a link for reference :

Cannot open PDF attachments in email, get administrator logon using Acrobat X?

Cannot open PDF attachments in email, get administrator logon using Acrobat X?

I have no problem opening PDF attachments that arrive in my Outlook 2003 Inbox; they open fine with Adobe Reader 9. It may be an issue with your email client.
But if you think that Adobe Reader 8 will fix it, you can download it from http://download.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/8.x/8.1.3/enu/AdbeRdr813_en_US.exe - make sure that you uninstall Reader 9 first (and Acrobat.com & Adobe AIR).

I cannot open images in my email since the Firefox update. Help!

I cannot open images in my email or view the embedded photo in a new tab since the Firefox Update. "IE" will let me open them, but not Firefox... How can I fix this?

Hi Pat..When I tried to run Fix It the computer pops up a screen that says this trouble shooter does not apply to this computer .The article refers to Internet Explorer 10 and Im running Internet Explorer 11. I did try to see it it would fix my problem but the registry entry does not exist on my computer (HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\TabProcGrowth) I can get as far as HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer but I dont have the option to choose Main. I only have the option to choose New Window which does not open up when clicked. Internet Explorer also has no value. Is there anything else I should try?

How do I make Firefox 4 the default browser? Whenever I open a link from email, it opens in the older version of Firefox.

I followed the installation instructions for Firefox 4, after I had the earlier version. Whenever I open a link from email or other programs, it opens in the earlier version of Firefox, not Firefox 4.

You'll need to get the Actions dialog to appear and check the use as default action at the bottom of the list. One of the common ways to get this to appear is to follow a link from an email program or a soical network app like Facebook or Twitter.

Using the ipad with ios7, cannot open mail links

I cannot open mail links on the ipad using ios7. Anyone else having this problem?

I can confirm that I'm having the same issue on my verizon iphone 4 on ios 7. If I click a link in an e-mail sent to me through the IOS mail app, safari often does not open. I've noticed that some pages will open. For example. A friend sent me a link to a story on imore.com. The link to the story would not open in safari. Dead. However, a separate link in the e-mail to the main site, imore.com DID open in safari when I tapped on it. I've had this issues with links not working for the last 2-3 weeks, and for whatever reason a reboot of the phone (hold down on/off and home, wait for logo, release buttons) has temporarily fixed the issue.

TS3899 opening enbedded links in emails

I am unable to open embedded links in email after recent iOS upgrade.

I rebooted my phone and that seemed to do the trick. Funny how the simplest thing is sometimes the easiest to forget.

On a mac computer, how do i set the default brower to open up links in emails to Safari, and not Mozilla

On a mac computer, how do i set the default brower to open up links in emails to Safari, and not Mozilla
== User Agent ==
Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 5.1; GTB6.5; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)

Thanks for the suggestion.
A few weeks ago I downloaded some free software from the "tucows.com" website, it appears to have permanently hijacked my web browsers (both firefox and IE) so all searches go to their "searchqu" site, and new tabs open at that site. I was unable to repair this with the addins you suggested or by editing my user preferences files, and ended up having to reinstall firefox. Hopefully I won't run into the tucows rootkit ;)
But thanks anyway.

When I send my ical link to my better half , who sadly, still uses a windows based system- He cannot open the link back to my calendar- any help?

When I send my ical link to my better half , who sadly, still uses a windows based system- He cannot open the link back to my calendar- any help?

I've been using iCloud since it's inception as "mac.com" or whatever it was called. I've been able to Sync Outlook Exchange Calenars to my iMac, iPhone and iPad. However, I cannot get iCal (when viewed in iCloud) to display Exchange or Google Calender items.
It's odd, all other Mac versions of iCal are happy e.g. iMac, MacBook Air, iPad Air, iPhone etc. But nothing when I login to icloud.com and look at the iCal there.

Just above the textarea that you use to enter the message text on the "Compose New Mail page" there is usually a button bar with buttons to add text formatting like Bold and Italic.<br />
That toolbar may also have a button to turn a text link into a clickable hyperlink (look for a chain like button).<br />
You can select the text and click that button to turn the link into a clickable hyperlink.<br />
If you can't find the button then hover them all to check the tooltip of each (e.g. Insert hyperlink).
