links not working in Foxfire but work in IE
I have used MS Publisher to create website for my church. Some links will not work in Firefox, but the links work when I test them in MS Pub, they also work when I view the site in IE.

That web page is a MS Office document with a lot of VML code.
Such a page only display properly in IE, but not in other browsers that do not support VML Office code.
If you want to use MS products like FrontPage then you have to make sure that you disable VML code in the web authoring settings and generate W3C compliant code that works in all browsers.
The Quick link box is not text, but a GIF image:

Those "links" that don't work in Firefox, don't work in these browsers either, Safari, Opera, and Chrome.
Can you please tell me how to turn that VML off in Publisher 2007? Thank you.
Since the last update (June 2012) my website 'home page' image won't download in FF, Youtube videos won't play, and in Society6 website the link to attach images is dead. All these things work in Google Chrome and it seems I will be looking around for another browser that is colour managed very soon or will just go back to using IE. I personally can't be doing with these inconveniences and won't be suffering long in the hope they will soon be fixed. I will be off as quick as lightening. So FF, please sort out this mess.

I regularly use CCleaner to empty cache and cookies. I did this to no avail. I am going to defrag computer now and will get back on this one.
