Can't activate from email link.

For some reason when I receive an email with a linked address to allow activation of a new account, they are no longer hyperlinked, (blue color). When I select, & copy the activation link, & paste it into my browser & enter, the result is: 'Your search did not match any documents'. This has happened more than once. Some new accounts will have an alternative activation link if one doesn't work. Any suggestions please!

I had a similar problem with hyperlinks a while back. I found a work around. If I put a space behind the link, it worked.

My problem now Clint is that I can't even Copy & Paste it anymore. I was able to when I first got the email, but now no! Any other suggestions? The problem is that the link isn't hyperlinked in the first place. Now whether that's a problem of the sender or Win8, I don't know! However, since it's to open an Opera email site I would think it's not the sender's fault.

I've managed to activate the Opera email acct. by clicking on the link at my ISP's site, (they set up my email service in the first place). However, I still with the problem as to why my email links are not hyperlinked. They don't work in my Gmail email service either.
