| 558068 | 2007-06-11 07:05:00 | I think Ive used it before, but I have no idea what it's called. What it does, is for example.. www.google.com With this addon, it will automatically show that as a hyperlink, so I can just click and it will open in a new window, rather than copy+paste into url bar. It's a lazy thing, but when you browse forums with a lot of links that aren't "linkified" it's annoying. Hope that makes sense. EDIT: and after posting, I just realized this site automatically links the links. Most sites don't. |

It's a forum setting - never heard of a browser plugin to do what you're asking. But you could do a search on Mozilla's (http://www.mozilla.org/) page. |

| 558070 | 2007-06-11 07:14:00 | Have tried searching there, but found nothing. www.gamespot.com (yes, I know, it's doing it here and now) but it doesn't do it over there unless you put tags. |

And thanks Greg, I didn't know that. Guess I chose the unlucky forum to join. Oh well...I still could've sworn there was an addon that hotlinked anything starting with www. Thanks anyway. |
