FIXProtocol.org website's software modifies URLs when posting mails

While posting a previous subject email at
http://fixprotocol.org/discuss/read/5731f6f9
I noted that a URL I posted in that mail was broken
http://saloon.javaranch.com/cgi-bin/ubb/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=forum&f=26
The URL above will contain a ; just before 'f' the 4th character from end of the URL which is not there in the browser's address bar from which I copied it before pasting it in this post, The above URL will not work though I have copied it from another browser with the following webpage in web directory location opens :-
www > JavaRanch.com > Big Moose Saloon > Professional Certification > Architect Certification (SCEA)
As part of some formating / reformating a URL, the FIXProtocol.org webpage rendering software modifies a URL and hence the URL does not work.
I tested to see if I can use the HTML tags in Website feedback forum's posts:-
http://fixprotocol.org/discuss/read/92a1d137
http://fixprotocol.org/discuss/read/a88e88bd
Then I posted without the HTML tags, a short and a long URL as in below posts :-
http://fixprotocol.org/discuss/read/f972dc8c
http://fixprotocol.org/discuss/read/5e2ebc96
The webpage URL formating part is adding / removing a ; (see difference in URLS in the previous two posts, the "quoted" part of the 2nd post contains the URL of the 1st post and I have "NOT Edited" the "quoted" part.)
Hope you are able to find a FIX for this because URL links in some other posts may also be getting broken.
Regards,
K. Mahesh
