I had some problems the first time I tried this with Internet Explorer 4.  I
think this was actually because I was trying to use subdirectories, and you can
only use the domain name.  As far as I can tell, IE has no length limit, or at
least not up to a couple of hundred characters.

You could try truncating the line until you don't get the error; that might
tell you if there is a limit.  It might also tell you where a typo is.

I also thought that my script files (created with Notepad) which inserted this
line automatically into the Registry might be having a problem with the long
lime, but they worked fine.  Notepad will wrap onscreen or not as you choose,
but it's still one line.
