Firefox
I just loaded Firefox here at work on Windows XP (W2K at home). Neither versions change the font color of sites that I have visited. I have tried to find the font setting for visited links, but cannot find it.
Any suggestions?
TIA,
Joe

Did that.
Even checked the box that allows me to override page colors. Still doesn't change the color on visited pages/links.
Wot am I missing?

I think you want Tab Mix Plus.
Standard FF may do what you want, but I use TMP to fancy up my browser. It lets you easily change the font color and features of unviewed tabs, read tabs, the active tab, etc., along with lots of other stuff. I've never tried to do these things with bare FF.
Beware that it seems to excite a memory leak in FF if you use the "Session Restore" feature (but FF's own crash protection stuff doesn't seem any better). If you restart your browser every day, it's not an issue either way.

2.0.0.4 (OS/2), 1.0.7.0 (W2K), 2.0.0.8 (W2K)
All use the link colors I chose in Tools / Options / Content / Colors, and I have it checked to allow pages to chose their own colors.
I use purple for visited links so they don't fade into the text as the default did.

Clint Eastwood, 1982. HTH!
It was just on TV here the other day. :-)

Re: Firefox
Check tools:options:privacy:Remember Visited Pages
If it's unchecked, no color change for you.

That did it.
Thanks, I don't usually leave that option on here at work. Never realized that it would prevent the link coloring.
Who would have thunk.
Thanks

Took a while...
I've only just realized you were sarcastic :( Duh.
Granted, some mention of this in other areas of the interface would be nice. But, if you tell the system not to remember where you visited, it makes highlighting the visited links really hard.
