I think I figured out what happened, and was wondering what to do to correct the situation. I prefer to use Firefox as a browser, because it's faster, but it when I post a link to a web address, it isn't a live one. If I want to post a live link, I have to go back over to Internet Explorer. Do I need to change a setting or something?

I never use Internet Explorer, its far too slow. |

But if it doesn't work, I still have IE and can make the switch. I hear Google's come out with a new browser called Chrome that's supposedly better than Firefox or IE.

The Chrome browser by Google is supposed to be a good one but I'm put off by it cos when they first did it they stated they had the rights to anything you uploaded, but I think they've changed that now. |
