When you add your email to an email list on this site, the software sends you an email to confirm that you really want to be on the list.  To do this you are sent a long code, which will not fit on a single line.  If you just click on the URL, you will see an error message.  For the confirmation to work, you need to splice the two lines together.  The following steps provide one way to do this:

• Copy the first line of the URL.
  (This can be tricky,  click to the left or right of the first line and drag to the other side.  Then, right-click and select copy) 
• Open your browser (usually Internet Explorer or Netscape). 
• Click on the address field at the top of your browser. 
• Delete everything that is in the address field. 
• Paste the first line into the address field. 
• Go back to the confirmation message. 
• Copy the second line of the URL. 
• Go back to your browser. 
• Position your cursor at the right end of the address field. 
• Paste the second line. 
• Make sure there are no spaces between the end of the first line and the start of the second line. 
• Position the cursor at the end of the combined lines. 
• Press Enter.

There are other ways to accomplish this, but this method worked for me.
