Making this test I also realised that Internet Explorer doesn´t let
you put an adress of more than 2047 characters in the URL bar


It also seems to have problems with clearing
long addresses from the address bar's 
automatic address typing function.

With IE5.5 on Win95, using the "Clear History"
button doesn't shift extremly long URL's.

If you start to type in the URL, it will come
up with the suggestion of using the long URL
that you accessed, which should have been
cleared.

This could be a mild kind of privacy issue, but
shouldn't really affect people as url's that
long are pretty hard to come by.
