My e-mail links from THE BAT are not working since the last Firefox upgrade. I've tried to find an answer in your support forum, but don't see one.

I have to copy and paste the links from all of my messages since the latest upgrade to Firefox. None of them work. I'm using The Bat as my e-mail client and I have Firefox as default browser there. When I click on the link, it looks as though something in The Bat is working, but nothing happens in Firefox.

The link works for me and not for you. That sounds like a clue to the problem if you have this weird ". in the link Perhaps just uninstall you anti virus program. They are well know to cause all sorts of issues.

But I will transfer this to the Firefox forum, perhaps a firefox specialist might have some suggestions..

Thank you Matt. I appreciate you passing this on to the specialists since I've done everything to try to solve this myself.

What do these links look like if you paste them in the location/address bar?

Are that valid URLs with the proper protocol (https/http) and nothing appended?
