Hi Disaster,

I cannot find a pattern here.  I just tried creating a new document in my 
new Microsoft Office Word program and both links I created had the same 
issue.  I wonder if I sent someone the URL and they tried to create 
hyperlinks in their program and email it to me, if I would be able to open 
the link and after clicking on "ok" when it shows the window I get with my 
passwork and ID info if it will take me there.
