I'm surprised that no one appears to have mentioned the main reason I was always taught not to use "click here".

From W3C: http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG10/#gl-facilitate-navigation

"Link text should be meaningful enough to make sense when read out of context -- either on its own or as part of a sequence of links."

This is especially true when you consider users who use screen readers.
