Default Is this Normal or Odd?

Either this is very odd or this is something new that I am unaware.

Bought a course, then an un-clickable link was sent via email, as some marketers send it that way, so I copyed and pasted to put in the browser to find it in both Yahoo and Google, nothing, page does not exist.

So, I started to send an PM , here, in Warrior Forum, to get the link sent , direct.

Once I pre-viewed the message before sending, the link that I was sent and put in the PM became "clickable".

Clicked it, downloaded, got the product.

Am I missing something here as to this way of recieving & retrieving products or is this some security measure?

You can right click on Windows systems and select "copy shortcut" and then paste it into your browser if you have trouble with seeing your links.

BTW what e-mail client are you using?

Email is Juno.

Whats the difference between clicking "copy" with a mouse, then "paste" into browser vs selecting "copy shortcut"?

99% of the time, when someone emails me a link, thats "underlined" or "highlights" showing its an active link to be clicked, I can click it to the destination link.

When I put my mouse cursor over the sent link, it did not respond or highlight as active.

Could be that some email clients "shorten" the display version of the link. So if it was something like h ttp://w ww.blablabla.com/?linkdownload828974298742982476198674
it would show up as h ttp://w sms chat

You should be able to right click it and select copy shortcut, which will copy the full link.
