Hi,

Same problem I meet just yesterday. After installing new linux box
(slackware-3.5)
with proxy (squid-1.1.22) some bookmarks from PC client (W95/Netscape)
like above
stop working; after modifying URL like above working again.
Notice directly from lynx on this linux box same old URL still working.
