Opening links in Flash files has now become impossible.
Firefox will open these links
Safari will open these links
IE 7 will not..
This has happened since the need to double click was removed from the
programme.
I have reinstalled IE 7 twice and it still refuses to work.
I suspect the problem is widespread and the programmer responsible for this
mess needs fixing.
Most people are giving up on using IE 7 as a consequence.
The version of IE 7 being used is the latest and has no add ons - it is out
of the box as is. Will Microsoft be fixing this problem any time soon?
