  I’m embedding the link http://hdl.loc.gov/loc.pnp/pan.6a05088 into my blog posting (I’m new) and I can preview it by hovering over it, but the link doesn’t follow through. Websense is blocking the link. After adding the link, it shows as this in its properties: http://hiderefer.com/?http://hdl.loc.gov/loc.pnp/pan.6a05088. I have no idea how to bypass this. I can open other WordPress.com blogs and their links work and they don’t have this hiderefer addition. Help!

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  @dmlocalhistory hiderefer.com is used because your blog is set to private.

  I don’t know why Websense is blocking it, you’d have to ask them.
