inserting active hyperlinks in Hotmail
I'm using Hotmail through Firefox 3.6.10 on a Mac OSX 10.6.4. When I copy hyperlinks and paste into Hotmail, they're not active and <enter> doesn't make them active either (as on a PC). I have to use the <Insert Hyperlink> feature on Hotmail. Any idea on the shortcut to make a hyperlink active? Thanks.

There is usually a toolbar button in the editor to turn a text link into a clickable hyperlink (look for a chain like button).
You can select the text and click that button to turn the link into a clickable hyperlink.
If you can't find the button then hover them all to check the tooltip of each (Insert Hyperlink).
Scroll down to the section "LINK TO WEB PAGES FROM YOUR EMAILS" in the following and see if that answers your question:
