Using links crashes Eudora

A new problem has cropped up in the last couple of days. When I click
on a link in my email, Eudora usually crashes. When it doesn't, it
takes about 5 minutes to open the link. I've used Eudora for many
years, and never had this problem. There has been no recent change in
my settings or configuration. Does anyone have an idea what could be
causing this problem?

I use Eudora 7.1.0.9, Paid Mode, on a Windows XP system. My default
browser is Firefox 7.

Pardon?

I'm using Firefox 2.0, and 3.0 has recently been released... There
is NO Firefox 7 to my knowledge...

Okay... Now the question... Did your problem begin when you upgraded
to FF3?

Sawubona,

I had to stop using Firefox three, and then Firefox altogether a
couple of months ago. FF3 is just to slow, and it hangs up constantly.
I went back to earlier versions that used to work OK, and the same
thing happened.

Now I also use "Flock" and love it. So I figured perhaps using the two
at the same time might be the problem. So I uninstalled Fiorefox and
haven't looked back.

The new Google browser works well also, but I haven't been able to
figure out where the find text icon, or command is. It is faster than
any of them including Opera.

I only use Eudora on my backup XP Pro SP3 computer and it has been
down for a while as the fan went out on it. I didn't have any major
problems though when the system was up.

I've been with Microsoft Outlook 2007 all this year now, on a 64 bit
Windows Vista Ultimate. I am perfectly comfortable with microsoft
Outlook and it's built in Contact Manager plus all of the other
programs that come with it.

Eudora works fairly well on my Vista system, but not as smoothly as
Outlook 2007. I don't use Thunderbird anymore either as there were
some things it wouldn't do as I wanted.


Good Luck
