Answer 1

Try holding down the Control key when you click on it.  I've had that happen occasionally on emails I get at work.

Answer 2

Sounds like you may have changed the sensitivity of links to a mouse click.  Here's how to find out and to change it back, at least in versions of MS Word prior to Word 2007 (Vista):

1. Click the Tools->Options menu item.

2. Click the Edit tab.

3. Examine the Use CTRL + Click to follow hyperlink checkbox.

Hope that helps.
