 * Please help
 * I have created a new post and added a hyperlink for users to download a file 
   but when i click update/publish i lose connection or get “The connection was 
   reset”. When i remove the hyperlink then it works perfectly. What could be the
   issue here because i need the links to be part of the body text.
