Hi Everyone,

When I post a question on the Windows news groups forum , I always select
"notify me of replies" . And for the last month or so , when I receive a
message in Outlook Express 6 saying that someone has replied to my question ,
and then I click on the link ( the "Read and rate the Response" link ) , it
takes me to a blank web-page instead of the page containing my question and
the reply.
This problem only began about 6-weeks ago , and only happens with the
"Read and rate the Response" link from e-mail notifications from the Windows
newsgroups . All other links in Outlook Express work fine.

Any ideas on what started this problem ?


A bug in the web application that you are using.

You can use the link you get to figure out which thread it is referring to.
Here's my answer to the same question from someone who provided
better detail last month:

Hint: delete the first broken URL and its &url= parameter prefix.
Then convert all the escaped hex characters to their proper ASCII
characters (use CharMap for help with that if necessary).

Thanks.
