That's a new "feature" (quirk, bug, etc.) of IE7. Others have seen the
issue.

Recently I noticed that when I click an URL in OE, the port (80) is
appended to the URL in the address bar of the browser (IE7). For
example, if I get an URL in my email - http://www.example.com - and
click it, IE7 displays http://www.example.com:80.

I've had IE7 for some time now, even since Beta 1, and have only just
noticed it. I made a quick program to open an URL via ShellExecute,
and this doesn't happen. I've clicked links in other programs, it
still doesn't happen. Only when clicking URLs in OE!

This isn't a terminal failure - as the page does open as expected.
However, it's more of a curiousity at this point.

I've searched through these groups, MS Support and regular Google and
I
don't see anything about this. Has anyone else seen this behavior?

Thanks;

Brad
