Link Problem

I am using Vista and Firefox and have a problem with links. When I click on a link a small window pops up saying, for example:

"Windows cannot find 'http://www.pcworld.com/article/idetcetra.
Make sure you typed the name correctly and try again."

Then the link opens with the above message on top. The message remains there after I close the link unless I click on the OK box.
Anyone know how to stop this?

Re: Link Problem

Hi martinray,

Have you got any extensions installed that could affect link behaviour like Tab Mix Plus or Linky?
