How can I see where a link is directed to
About all browsers I know of show where a link is leading to, whenever I hover over it. This information is often shown in a status bar. I cannot find how to do this with Firefox.

Install this add-on: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/drweb-anti-virus-link-checker/
It has the added advantage of scanning the link for viruses.
Thanks Xircal, I'll give this a try!

If you do not see the status bar in Firefox 3.6.x then check: View > [X] Status Bar
I already enabled the Firefox status bar, cor-el, so it is visible.
Alas, this has no effect whatsoever when I hover over a link:
no extra information is shown, none of the items on the status bar change.
A pity, since that would have made things even better.
The benefit of the Dr. Web checker is that the link is checked.
