    It has come to my attention that some links do not work for some people for example

    http://www.thestar.com/NASApp/cs/Co...out/Article_Type1&c=Article&cid=1112612464877

    The above link is not considered valid HTML and in few browsers it is not clickable
    Why? the " & " is used as a serperator when passing more than one variable to a web site
    And all though the browsers in question will generate these " & " separators from a web page and work properly, they will not make links like the one above clickable.

    Work around: copy and paste the link to the address bar and hit enter, or use a different browser.

    Note: A full updated XP using IE has shown this performance of late so be aware.
