I want to click on a link on a website but the cursor changes to a red circle with a line through it when I move the cursor to the link.
On the Memrise website there are groups. I want to invite my students to my group by giving them the link to the group. When I move the cursor to the link, the cursor changes to a red circle with a line through it so I can't copy the link or even view the link.

Hi MrANW.
Is this something new to happen, or was the behaviour always the same? Does it happen also in other browser than Firefox? This seems more like some "protection" built into the Memrise website than something in Firefox.
That is not normal Firefox behavior. Is this with many websites, some, a few, just one?
Please provide public link(s) (no password) that we can check out. No Personal Information Please !
Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} by holding down the <Shift> (Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.
A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?
I just discovered this is not just happening with Firefox, I tried Microsoft Edge browser and got the same problem. So it looks like something else on my PC. Links on other websites work ok. Maybe it's that website. Here is the URL of the website: Memrise All the other links on the website work, it's just the link to invite new members to a group. So it looks like I need to raise this issue with Memrise. Thanks for the help.
Please keep us posted.
