I use Firefox, and it works fine on the link. But guess what? I fired up Internet Explorer 11 on my Windows 7 desktop, and tried both the short form and the long form of the link. Both of them returned the error message

Microsoft is phasing out Internet Explorer in favor of the new Microsoft Edge browser. According to their Tech Support web page, the only version of IE still supported is Internet Explorer 11, and only when it is running on Windows 7 SP1 (but not Windows 7), Windows 8.1 Update (but not Windows 8.1 or Windows 8), and Windows 10 (backward compatible only).

Are you running one of the unholy combinations? Perhaps it is time to change browsers. I like Firefox, but obviously there are others.
