Computer: Dell Dimension 4600 (desktop) Operating system: Linux Mint 13 (Maya/Mate 64) Browser: Firefox (current version for Linux is 1.0)
I posted this on the Google Help forum, but then I learned about Greasemonkey, and I thought someone here might be better equipped to help me. If anyone here follows the help forum, please forgive the redundancy. Recently, Gmail has been accessing links in my email messages without a mouse click. If I accidentally mouse over a link, BAM -- a new window opens and I am instantly transferred to it. I hope very much that this isn't a "new feature", because it is driving me crazy. I am partially sighted, with constricted visual fields, and I can't see the whole screen at once, so I'm not aware when I mouse over the links at the edge of the screen. It's extremely annoying, when I'm in the middle of reading an email, suddenly to be yanked onto another page. I much preferred being able to choose when I navigated to a link by clicking on it. If this mouse-over thing is not a glitch, is there any way I can turn it off? I've looked through all the settings options for Firefox and Gmail, but I haven't been able to figure it out. I uninstalled and re-installed Firefox last night, but that didn't solve the problem. It just happened several more times when I went into Gmail to look up my computer information, which I have stored there. I installed the current version of Greasemonkey on my browser this morning, but I've not used it yet. Thanks in advance for any suggestions (besides switching to another browser -- I've already thought of that one, and it's what I'm going to do if I can't solve this). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "greasemonkey-users" group.
