Turn On Link Underlining At Times

SUMMARY: Only underline links in Internet Explorer when the mouse pointer hovers over them.

Do you like your links underlined? If not, you can disable this standard; however, it can sometimes be difficult to determine just what is a link. IE can make links underlined only if your mouse is on top of a link. Click the "View" menu and select "Internet Options." On the multi-tabbed dialog box that appears, click the "Advanced" tab. Next to "Underline links," change the radio box option to "Hover." Click OK to close the dialog boxes.
