    For some reason, when I "send link" using firefox, there is no "link". In other words the only way the recipient can get the link to work is by cutting and pasting it into the address bar.

    I know that there must be somewhere in either Windows Live, or firefox to set it up so that there is a "link"...but for the life of me, I can't find it.

    Does anyone know where to change this setting? My apologies if this question has been asked a million times already.

    I'm not sure of the fix but my question is does the link not work for more than one recipient? The reason I ask is it is probably a problem with the recipient's computer rather than yours. I may be wrong about that but usually it would be their email program not allowing live links to open their web browser.

    Send a link to yourself and see if it shows up on your computer.

    Interesting...I sent several links to myself. One of them worked, and the rest didn't. Now I'm really confused!
