Description Igor 2013-01-01 16:49:32 UTC 
I've tried to post a link:
https://skydrive.live.com/redir?resid=8FD4EC3161ABA67A!175&authkey=!AHGJUpbDOX6YaZ0

Though, there's a couple of complications with that.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Let's simply enter the link:
"
https://skydrive.live.com/redir?resid=8FD4EC3161ABA67A!175&authkey=!AHGJUpbDOX6YaZ0
"

We'll get the following html code 
(of course we need to click "Preview", select the preview, and chose "View Selection Source", or something like that)
"
<a href="https://skydrive.live.com/redir?resid=8FD4EC3161ABA67A" target="_blank">https://skydrive.live.com/redir?resid=8FD4EC3161ABA67A</a>!175&amp;authkey=!AHGJUpbDOX6YaZ0
"

2. Let's try

"
Actual Results:  
Links are broken

Expected Results:  
Links working, like on most forums.

The only possible solution I've found is to use http://tinyurl.com/ , or something...
