Thanks for this information/link. The bug conversation implies that you can disable the RedirectTracker but doesn't say how.
Can anyone tell me if there is an archive that I can get earlier sandbox jar files (preferably one without this RedirectTracker feature/bug in it)? If not I guess I will have to rip out the url validation (which I would prefer not to do). Thanks.
