Using internet link to search a page?

having problems searching for a page on my internet, do not know why

What happens is I get a link to go to a forum location on one of the forums, I copy the link, because centurytel.net is not set so you just click on the link, and paste it into the search field and select either google or yahoo and then search

What I get using any link is [IMG][/IMG]I get no link to the link I want.

What can I do to correct this????

God Bless DC

Re: Using internet link to search a page?

now I am real puzzled, I wrote you a message and it gone and not only that the picture I had to show what the problem is, is gone. I do not get it. O well start all over again.

Had GTO, thought you got hung up with some good-looking girl there and you had vanished on us.

Ua. I did exactly what you said and it did not work got the same results.

My new Internet service suggested clearing my explorer cookies and cache but I am hesitant to do so because I would loose all my favorites and have to re-enter my addresses and passwords and I did not want to do that.

Any suggestions my friend or and one else?????

O GTO I am now DSL Internet speed and use Vista?

You wont loose your favorites if you do this.

If you search for another web address do you get the same problem? or is it just with the one address?

Re: Using internet link to search a page?

Same results, if I use the whole link. If I use just the website address only, I get the usual list of website address. But when I use any full link to the address, back to the same page.

I got gusee last night and clear the cookies and cache, you are right, i did not loose my favorites, but after that had some server problems with the modem ... Ua... router and it would not let me get on the INTERNET but it seems to be OK now. I have not tried the link yet but I will and get back to you, I don't feel like its going to do any thing but the same stuff. let me go try.
