Getting technical here...
Redirects through Microsoft? My understanding is that the URL spec is
<protocol>://<user>:<password>@<host>:<port>/<path>
I assume anything before the "@" would treated as username only if there
is no ":". Therefore the URL
<http://www.microsoft.com&[EMAIL PROTECTED]/nyheter/feb01/Q209354%20-%20HOWTO.
htm>
Means go direct using http to "hardware.no" with username
"www.microsoft.com&item=q209354". MS has nothing to do with the URL or
redirection. It's just a cleverly constructed username to make it look
like its going too www.microsoft.com.

The article covers and explains the "RTFM" term that is regularly
used in computing.
VERY worth having a look at, although once word gets around I think
that particular web page will be taken down.
The page isn't actually on Microsoft's site, it's just a URL that
redirects through Microsoft to
<http://hardware.no/nyheter/feb01/Q209354%20-%20HOWTO.htm>
Have fun,
