UGS solutions search annoyance
UGS solutions search annoyance
(OP)
When I search for solutions in the Siemens Support site,
http://uganswer.ugs.com/qcksrch.stm or
http://uganswer.ugs.com/default.stm
which takes me to the following website:
http://uganswer.ugs.com/search97cgi/s97_cgi.exe
If you observe, the url ends in .exe extension (i.e. s97_cgi.exe). Since it is an EXE (although the information displayed in an unblocked page is all text!), so this site is automatically Blocked by our company IT policies. Hope .exe urls are blocked in other organizations also.
It will be better, if Simens' Solutions Search url ends with any other extension other than .exe

To an Engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.

http://uganswer.ugs.com/default.stm for Advanced search
but both will lead to the same URL, after hitting Search button, i.e.
http://uganswer.ugs.com/search97cgi/s97_cgi.exe
