I got a reply to a previous query recommending a website. The URL was

http://img364.imageshack.us/img364/...tyslickehh2.jpg

and I guess my browser didn't like the "...", alhough I don't know. Can anyone help? Can Chosen Few help? I don't know what to put for the ellipsis. But I have a hunch I
really want to consult this website.It might help me avoid another meeting with
my analyst.

Thanks/

Don't know if it helps, but I saw the same link in this thread:

looks like a miscopied URL. forums usually truncated long urls and display the top level followed by a folder or two, then the file name it targets with ellipsis in between. the original link needs to be copied by right click, copy link location (copy link target I think for IE users)... apparently both those posters used cut and paste on an original forum posted link and reposted the displayed link and not the actual link, which broke them.

I think it's Copy Shortcut in IE.

I don't feel like starting IE to check.
