Links in convos

I appear not to be able to send links with "profile.php?id=blah" in the
address. Why is this? Is MSN blocking these things?

I used to be able to send them, but now I just can't. My friends can't send
them to each other either.

Are there any other things which MSN are blocking that we should be aware
of? Any way of turning it of?

If you're going to block messages then you have to tell the sender so he/she
can ammend the message or we just think it got through fine.

Greetings Daryl,

Yes they are. This was the format used for a virus awhile ago and so certain links were
blocked. Pics.php, .pif and others I can't think of are blocked too.

I agree they should bounce when they're not sent.
