Website www.drudgereport.com This is the only website I am seeing this problem with. hovering over links, display correct url in status bar clicking on links do not appear to do anything. Looking at page source shows links as normal html <A HREF="http://......">text</A> If you left mouse click the link, and open in new tab, it works fine.
