 Hello all

 I have started to receive complains from people trying to get video's from
msnbc.com that use a # character in the URL.

Such as:

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/22425001/vp/27657223#27657223
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/22425001/vp/27652443#27652443

The access log shows that it is removing the pound sign and everything after.

7 TCP_MISS:DIRECT
9.2.2.7 - - [11/Nov/2008:09:59:30 -0800] "GET
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/22425001/vp/27657223 HTTP/1.1" 200 477
TCP_MISS:DIRECT
9.2.2.7 - - [11/Nov/2008:10:00:18 -0800] "GET
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/22425001/vp/27652443 HTTP/1.1" 200 477
TCP_MISS:DIRECT

 I cannot see in my config why it would be truncating out the pound character.

 Any assistance greatly appreciated.

 Thanks!

  Nicole
