I missed the change, but it seems recent threads are using a spelt out forum name rather than the old numerical ones, for example a particular thread has the url:

[webmasterworld.com...]

where under the old system it would be:

[webmasterworld.com...]

Nice change btw, for those of us who don't know the numbers by heart.

The problem is that the "Remove Highlighting" link which appears when you access the page with a SERP as the refferer links to the old numerical forum id, and it 404s.

For an example see this this Google SERP [google.com] and click on any of the threads with the spelt out forum names.

Thanks.

Solution: copy the url from google and paste into your browser.
