Sinced upgrade to 4.0 the hyperlinks on my own website are no longer underlined. They're fine in FF 3 and all other browsers tried.

The underlines appeared correctly in FF3 but since the upgrade to 4.0 they don't so visitors can't see what's clickable. The website still looks fine on my old XP machine running FF3 and when I use IE or Chrome on my current PC.

Are you using CSS code to underline links or do you rely on the browser setting?
Can you post a link?

Brilliant! Under Tools > Options etc as in your reply there is a tick-box "Underline Links" which was empty. Having ticked it everything is now as it should be. Thanks!

I think this is now the third default setting I have come across that has changed since FF3. If these changes were intentional then it would have been helpful if they were pointed out when the new release was made available. If unintentional then it seems a bit careless.
