I've got an issue with IE 11 running in Windows 8.1 with all the updates etc. current. When I do a search on any topic in any search application (Google, Bing, Duck, Duck Go or others) all of the resulting links work except any to a Microsoft web page. If I click on an MS link in google it opens a blank/empty tab. In the other search applications when I click on the MS link nothing happens - all other address links work.
I tried the same process in a Safari browser and everything worked normally. I've done a full scan, ran Malwarebytes Anti-Malware and come up clean in both. I've checked the IE settings and don't see anything there that could be causing this. I have searched on the internet in general for ideas and found very few examples of this problem. I did find information on 'redirect' issues but that does not fit my situation. Any ideas - help??
