    Blocking 'Facebook' links
    « on: December 21, 2011, 10:30:17 AM »
    Every time I open an e-mail message and there are links to items, as soon as I hover the arrow over the link, a box with 'f SHARE' pops up. Can I stop this please and how?

        Please don't use Incredimail.  (All sorts of reasons - I won't bore you.)  For free mail clients, try Windows Live Mail or Thunderbird.

        Agreed.

        It's very possible IncrediMail has signed a facebook agreement...all the more reason to dump it.

          Thanks for your advice re IncrediMail.   I've had my suspicions for some time now.
