Duckduckgo newsletter and Pinterest links do not function

[Eric]

Duckduckgo newsletter links the mouse cursor acts like they are not there and will not function when left clicked on.

Pinterest links will try to function, but pulls up a blank tab. This has happened two or three times this week. Just tried it again and got it to work, so might be an off and on problem or that I tried shutting down the computer and bring it back up without signing out of AOL....

Tried the Duckduckgo links again, still not working. Will only work if I make a forward of the newsletter, where I can then use the links.
