Why Are My Links Highlighted In Red?
It's not uncommon for me to download numerous tools over a period of time while I'm online. Today I had spent the last few hours reading blogs, checking twitter, downloading a few SEO tools, and so forth. All of a sudden I notice that all of my links are highlighted in red!
Annoyed, because it was happening on every page no matter where I went, I did a little research and found the answer: The SEO toolbar I downloaded defaulted the setting that had caused this highlighting occurrence. If this has happened to you, the fix is simple:
Go to Tools/SEO for Firefox/Options. The setting is 'nofollow links.' Click the box "enable/disable highlighting." Refresh your page, and the links should go back to normal.
Thanks

Thanks! Ugh... that was annoying. Someone should send an email to Aaron Wall about that! (What? Why don't I do it? Because I... uh... I... ok fine, I'll send him an email. Can't promise he'll respond to it though).
Thank you
Thanks you saved me time and effort. Bless.
Now I don't get the RED, Thanks!
Suffered these red links for a while, finally got fed up and did the search. Found your post at the top of the list.
I suffer from them no more!

Thanks!
Thank You -- Thank You -- Thank You
I can't image the benefit from highlighting these links in RED. Unless it is to drive people crazy. Very successful at doing that to me. Thanks so very much for the fix.
It would have been nice if
It would have been nice if SEO Toolbar had made that both optional and obvious, rather than hijacking my browser. I'll find another tool, thank you very much.
Thank you SO MUCH for this
Thank you SO MUCH for this tip. It was driving me crazy! All fixed now. But its also good to know I can turn it on if I want to quickly analyze the links on a page. I noticed while I was in there that I can also activate features that will highlight internal vs external links, etc. Thanks again.
