Double GET-Request if click on a hyperlink in a column
 

Hello experts,

I have encountered the following "special" effect on using the Excel 2003:

I have included a login page, e.g.
http://localhost:8080/jsp-examples/security/protected/
in a column. If I follow the hyperlink, I can see in a HTTP monitor that
two GET-Request of the same page, , GET /jsp-examples/security/protected/
HTTP/1.1,
would be sent to the Web Server. Do you know why the Excel sends two
request? Could it be a bug?

Thank you for your help in advance.

Best Regards,
Huaiyang
