How do I turn on the links in gmail? As it is now, I have to copy/paste into my web browser if wanting to use a link posted.

If it helps, I use eTrust Internet Security Suite.

Thank you.

What browser are you using?
I think the link you are talking about is text...not a link.
Note that these two are different.

I use IE 6.

No it's not text, as shown above. It is a link, underlined like you show.

If you write your post in text mode, the receiving email client will automatically turn URLs into links (at least in a good email client). If you use HTML mode, then make sure you're using actual links, typically by clicking on the chain icon on top of the edit box...
