Selecting any of the link at the top of the page (e.g.: "home", "sign in") at
http://www.ebay.com does not result in the link being followed, even though the
cursor changes to reflect a possible link when it hovers over the words.
Selecting the middle mouse button results in the message: "URL is not valid and
can not be followed".

This used to work with older versions of Mozilla and still work for other
browser, such as Konqueror.

Looking at the page source, the link for "sign in" is to the URL
http://cgi3.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?SignIn
Opening that URL directly (Ctrl+Shift+L) results in the sign in page being
displayed.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to http://www.ebay.com
2. Select the "sign in" link at the top of the page

Actual Results:  
Nothing happens.

Expected Results:  
The Ebay sign in page should have been displayed.
