Just another example of M$ dirty "inovation". IE is "improved" so that 
sites that
put backslashs in instead of forward still work. Then frontpage suddenly has
a bug in it that publishes links with backslashes instead of forward.

The result. Users see the site rendering correctly in IE but not in any 
other
browser and therefore assume that it's a browser problem and change to IE.
Other browsers are then forced to also break the standard in their next 
release.

Now you know why we hate them so much!
