When you are typing your post you need to click the button next to the one for inserting pictures ("insert hyperlink") and then in between the two boxes that say "url" you either copy and paste or type the web address in that you want to link to.  Click preview to check and it should come up in blue - then its done!
Will look like this...

The method which I find works well for me ...

Open a new window to the destination site ...
Copy the url from the address bar (right click, then copy) ...
Back to your post reply window and press 'insert hyperlink' button (the planet earth) ...
paste the copied link into the url code ...

ie [ url]insert link here[/url]

Why bother with hyperlink??

Why not just LC on address - copy & paste in post?

How about if you want to be really fancy and write "click here" (or other appropriate words) and make this into a hyperlink?

Hope that makes sense.
