103158 - Clicking on hyperlinks in CNN.com do not take me to site; returns to CNN homepage

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

On the CNN website there are links you can click on to get the TOP STORY'S for
the day. When you click on these links they try to go to site but it just
reloads CNN homepage instead.

Steps to reproduce:

1.  On HomePage of Netscape click on "Latest News" hyperlink that takes you to
the CNN Homepage (news will always change).

2.  You will be on the main "News" site of CNN. Note what site looks like
(usually a netscape cd advertisement will appear). Then click on one of the
latest news headlines link to read the news headline (you can choose).

3.  The page will appear like it is loading the site you just clicked on but
what will appear is the screen you just left. The CNN News site.
