I'm still new to Lotus, but I have LN 8.0.2, and have it set up to open hyperlinks "using the browser i have set as the default for this operating system" which in my case is Firefox 3.6.13. If I try to select "use the browser embedded in this client" then it just forgets it after I click save (ie if i go back into preferences it's reset to the default for this operating system option) Windows XP SP 3.

Whenever I click on a link in an ~~email~~...memo... then it does nothing and flashes an underscore underneath it. It's so basic and so annoying there must be something I'm missing.

Any help please!
