The home page of the Washington Post works fine. But If I try to open a link on that page, I get the message: Invalid URL The requested URL "/wp-dyn/content/article/2011/03/05/AR2011030500289.html?nav=hcmodule", is invalid.

Reference #9.243b543f.1299342316.143eddb7

The above URL is not the one shown when hovering over the link.

Look in your tools- addons- extensions & see if you have "https-everywhere" extension. If so that's the problem. Click on options, unclick "Washington Post. That's all folks.
