Since High Sierra upgrade I can no longer use hyperlinks

All hyperlinks are coloured in grey with a line through them so can't be used, how do I sort this?

Hello and welcome to Apple Support Communities, SuziF.
If I understand your post correctly, hyperlinks are not working in macOS High Sierra and appear grey with lines through them. Being able to use hyperlinks is definately easier than typing out web addresses manually. I'm happy to help.
Let's do some testing to isolate the issue with hyperlinks.
Safe mode will tell us if the issue is related to a startup item or plugins, and sometimes corrects the issue. This article will tell you how: Use safe mode to isolate issues with your Mac
If everything is working correctly in safe mode, but is not working when you get back to your user account, please check the section titled "If an issue doesn't happen in safe mode" for the next troubleshooting steps.
If the issue continues while in safe mode, a test user will let us know if the issue is isolated to your account, or system wide: How to test an issue in another user account on your Mac. If the issue happens in the test user also, then please check the section titled "If an issue happens in more than one user account."
Let us know if that resolves this issue for you.
Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. Take care.
