In the past when I received an email notification from this forum, my links were in HTML format and I could just click on them and go to this site. Now they appear as plain text.

Just wondering if anyone else is having this issue?

Mine appear OK in outlook express on my PC but I did notice they no longer appear as links in my android email. I'm assuming it's some change with the email apps updating and just needs the settings changing.

Maybe look at your antivirus as that may also disable hyperlinks

Have you looked to see if it's due to any firefox addons? Try running in safe mode and see if it's OK as addons won't run in firefox safe mode, if it's fine without then it'll be one of the addons causing it, if not showing in safe mode then it'll be your firefox installation.

Just tried safe mode and no good.

Did send myself an email with link and all fine.

Mmm maybe have a look at email source from recent BA notification and compare with an old one where the link works.

Is firefox your default browser? Could try switching that off and on again, sometimes if the prog isn't set as default for http it won't open them.

Have you tried other browsers? Might just need to reinstal firefox if it's got corrupted
