Right. on the gen board is a thread by a Daniel longman( i think) Within that thread is a reply from Peter Morgella telling how to set your browser not to underline things. I found it and have altered mine - and if i can believe me, YOU can That is heaps better Credit to Peter Morgella THANK YOU!! jess

copied and pasted here If you want to get rid of the underlining on web links Go Start, Controll Panel, Network and Internet Option and Internet Options This should give you the Internet Propertis dialogue box. Select the Advanced tab then scroll down under browsing until you see Underline links. Then check Hover or Never, rather than Always.

An even quicker route: At top of your screen, directly under the blue bar, click on Tools; Internet Options is the bottom one in the drop-down menu! Mainly thanks to Peter, but a little thank you to my hubby lol Mandy :)

When I did it I had to go to Tools, internet options and then settings and go down through a list to tick the box on hover. Mine is Win ME

Just came on and found this awful line, and the writing looks different although I don't mind it. Bingo got rid of the line, where did it come from?
