    The following worked in SP1, but not SP2.

    When you double-click a portion of a URL in the address bar, only that
    portion would be highlighted or selected. For example, you have the
    following URL in the address bar: http://www.abcdef.com/hello/windows.html
    If you double click on the word hello, only the word hello would be
    highlighted. Ever since I installed SP2, that no longer happens. The entire
    URL gets highlighted.

    After some further research, I have found that the forward slash isn't being
    treated as a delimiter. However, question marks and some other characters
    are.

    The bottom line here is where and how to I modify the delimiter list used by
    internet explorer?
