Clickable custom User Profile field? Help!

I want to add some fields to the User Profile, where the user is asked to type in their link and those links become "clickable" when they are displayed on the User Profile.

For instance, they could type in the link for their blog, or Facebook page, or LinkedIn profile. Once it is saved, I'd like these to show up as clickable links in the profiles; right now it is cut-and-paste only. Adding HTML or BB code tags when the user enters the information doesn't work. (I realize there is one "home page" URL field that is clickable. I want to display more in the profiles.)

I searched and found only this thread on vBulletin.com which doesn't offer a solution, and suggests coming here for help instead.

I am not a programmer, but I can fake my way through some hacks with guidance. For instance, I have successfully removed the instant messaging stuff using the fine instructions found here. (Currently using v4.2.0 patch 3; yes, I know I need to upgrade. Working on it.)

Might anyone be able to provide me with similar instructions for making a single-text field on the User Profile turn into a clickable link?
