It's definitely well-done. Be advised that it is _not_ on Microsoft's web
site, and if MS knew about it, they'd go massively non-linear and cast
"Summon Lawyers" against hardware.no and hwnd.net.

Make sure you get the whole address. The "54%20-%20HOWTO.htm" isn't
included in the hyperlink.

There was no hyperlink. I sent plain ascii. If your OE email client made the
link active, you have a problem!

Not really. Seems the link was not *properly* made active, for one. And, if
people included a link to an exe, your OE would go get it and automagically
execute it, to your detriment.

Prolly 'cuz yer emailer sent it truncated or split... Or could be that OE
broke it up and couldn't reconcile it. Typical MS programmed-stupidity.

I would never click a link to an executable.
You seen that recent party pics worm? It had a .com ending and a www. start.
It's going to fool lots of people (already has) into clicking it, thinking
it's a web page. I'm not that... uh... unlearned... that I would fall for
such a thing. :)

Be careful of link wrap - the two lines that folded into the URI should
have been all on one line:
>> http://www.microsoft.com&item=q209354 at
>> hardware.no/nyheter/feb01/Q209354%20-%20HOWTO.htm
It's useful to "quote" long links so that they won't wrap in some clients.
