| | Pictures when clicking on a link - additional info Just found out the pictures will open when I open the link in Internet Explorer. My default is Firefox and they will not open in that. ?? So when the email is sent, I can copy the link, close email, open the link in internet explorer and then it works, when I used to be able to just click on the link. ?? P.S. I am so non-techy11 -- Caspar's Mom |
