Are SLURL's broken...or do I have something turned off.

When I try to go to an SLURL location, the web page comes up and asks if I want to launch the application OK but nothing happens in world.

Was wondering if the slurls are busted or if I have to to do something to activate them.

Yesterday, SLURL links would bring up the map in SL, but I had to enter the sim name and coordinates manually. Haven't tried today.

I just clicked a slurl and in-world a landmark popped up for me to click on. I do remember that it used to actually pop up the map, but now it just seems to open a landmark for it, which then has the option of 'teleport' or 'show on map' (but not a 'discard' option unfortunately).

For me, they seem to bring up the new LM window.. From there, I can click the TP or Show on Map buttons and those do work.

Eureka or something like that. I see what the problem is.

The SLURL server is trying to launch Windlight. I don't have Windlight installed as it wouldn't work with my video card and I uninstalled it.

Now to figure out to fix that.
