Dealing with PID links with a Windows system

First: highlight the letters, numbers and symbols in black that follow the colon.
Second: press control C (which copies the text [the PID=number])
Third: click on the colored link which takes you to the page (in this case, to the OPW page)
Fourth: click on the end of the link at the top of the page behind the ampersand (the β€˜and’ sign)
Fifth: click again, so that the text is not highlighted and press control V (which pastes the PID=number)
Sixth: Press enter and you will go to the new page.

I’m sure that more computer savvy people can give you a better explanation, but this is my best shot. It sounds complicated, but after a few tries, it works well and with ease.

Thank you for that Jacqui, I consider myself to be quite computer savvy but I have no idea what a PID link is. I have never come across them.

PID = Product IDentification
..sometimes we'll post a link (to a website, freebie, etc) but it gets broken during submission, so to fix the break, follow jacquipaul's explanation - I'm lazy so I right click my mouse instead of using the keyboard shortcuts :) xXx

Had to open this post to see what you were talking about as I don't have a clue what a PID is. I'm not exactly computer savvy. Thanks for posting this but since I can't remember anything either will give it a checkmark for future refrences if I run across a "PID". Thanks again for posting as I know others will appreciate the info too.

Thank you for this information. I always have trouble with those and just skip them! Now I won't have to!
