Clicking on links

 When searching the internet for information i always click on a link that is certified as safe by Norton.  I am searching for a solution to a message that comes up on my Dell laptop windows 7 that appeared after power failure caused an improper shut down.  It is in regard to Open Office, I cannot access any of my documents as I am being told that I have to close certain open files first.  I have found others who also have this problem, and like myself, have followed the advice, without success.  I am reluctant to click on links within this advice, which leads to other sites with 'solutions'.  My query is, if I have clicked on a link certified safe by Norton, are the suggested links within that link also safe?
