User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0

With Firefox 1.0, I can't access the full parthenis.com URL mentioned above.
However, I can access its root http://parthenis.gr/index.php . 

The full parthenis.com address mentioned above works with Explorer. 

The problem arises with all Parthenis.com license buttons, I just chose this one
as an example

I have already contacted the WM of parthenis.com, but didn't get any feedback,
or action upon my e-mail

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Enter
http://parthenis.com/copyrightbutton/copyright.cgi?Managers+HelpingManagers in
the URL window of firefox 1.0
2. Press Enter
3.

Actual Results:  
I was taken to http://www.mozilla.org/ instead

Expected Results:  
The software should have taken me to
http://parthenis.com/copyrightbutton/copyright.cgi?Managers+HelpingManagers

This is annoying because people using the Parthenis.com copyright buttons think
that everybody can use them, whereas it is not so. Personal warning to the WM of
Parthenis.com about this usability problem didn't work.
