On paper printouts this means that the actual URLs behind those links are lost information. It would be very useful if those URLs are actually also printed somewhere on the paper copy (so they can be re-typed into a browser later). I suggest a printing option to either put these as footnotes on each page, a list of "references" (footnotes) appended at the end of the print, or possibly both. Printing them directly inline with each link could also be an option, although that might affect the page layout more severely in some cases. Reproducible: Always Everything optional at the user's decision, of course.

This is a mass search for bugs that are in the Firefox General component, are UNCO, and have not been changed for 800 days and have an unspecified version. Reporter, can you please update to Firefox 3.6.10, create a fresh profile, http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/managing+profiles, and test again. If you still see the bug, please update this bug. If the issue is gone, please set the resolution to RESOLVED > WORKSFORME.

Here is a URL where the problem appears: http://www.electro-tech-online.com/general-electronics-chat/124250-help-water-pump-130.html#post1093556 I do believe that it may be a feature that this company/website is responsible for: https://www.vbulletin.com/ When I mouse over the link using one of the FF extensions, the entire link appears. I'd like to see full URL's too, but it's likely not Firefox's problem.
