When I select a message on an article (or in certain forums), the page refreshes and doesn't automatically display the message. Generally this also causes the page to jump from where I am to page 1, where the message possibly doesn't exist. This causes some headaches in trying to read past page 1.

Same here: Page reloads when clicking on a message in articles.
Also: The rating-widget on articles is displayed as ordinary radio-buttons instead of stars.
Not yet observed: this happening in forums / the jump-to-page-1-effect

I tried to change my email from a GMail.com one to a Live.com one, and I got a message stating that the email was in use for authentication but not actually authenticated, and a 'forgot password' check shows that the email is unused. What gives?

Same thing.
I get:
Quote:
Items that need attention:
Email already in use for Authentication, but email was not correctly authenticated. Please supply a password.
Problem is, I don't know what password I used for that email.

Send me an email from the account to which you'd like to change your address and I'll get it sorted. I need to know the email you wish to use is actually one you control.

Here is what happened. Some members reported some broken links in few of my recent answers. I checked it up and found that there are a lot more.
Fortunately, they are easy to fix: past answers with the URL of the form "http://www.codeproject.com/Answers/... .../*.aspx#answer*", can be fixed by just removing "*.aspx" part.
I have a big collections of links used to answer questions, mostly the CodeProject links, and most of them are the links to my own past answers. ("Permalinks", by the way.) I recently reviewed it and found that about a half of my and some other links were broken in the way described above. I fixed and re-checked up all of them, but the harder problem remains: there are many answers (including those good for referencing or actually presently referenced in other posts) which still have those broken links. Even though I could fix them all, there is no a certain criteria for finding them. Besides, some other members reference each other posts, mine or not.
I missed the moment when the URL structure and existing "permalinks" were modified, and neglected those broken links since them, and by now such problems have been accumulated.
Can anything be done?
Thank you,

Excuse me, what do you mean? Easy for who? — Thank you, Chris.

Great. Sorry, I looked at your message absentmindedly. 
I guess… do you mean that you are going to make accept both formats of URL to present the same page, old one (with .aspx) and the new one? It that the idea?

Yes - and it's just been deployed.
My apologies for the original oversight.

By the way, here is my special invitation for you to see my new 1 of April publication and have some fun:
Some Programming Approaches to "Neuro-Linguistic Programming".
Participation in this game in Comments and Discussions is especially encouraged.
This time, I put more effort in the work. The fun and mocking is supposed to be combined with quite serious hints, in the satirical form, on how we can conduct our discussions, give and use advice, add references and use them, use critical thinking, learn and use our own brains.
I hope many members will enjoy it.
Thank you.

By the way, it's already 3rd year when I try to create (or provoke creation) of 1st of April tradition on this site by some publications.
Not only some worlds-class universities and some cities have a large-scale traditional celebrations related to this day, remember IETF humorous RFCs published nearly every year: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/April_Fools%27_Day_Request_for_Comments...
Maybe we somehow stimulate it? Competition, for example..?

Thanks for the link, still not sure why my account was closed though  hopefully it will be reinstated.

Because you posted link to some commercial product which was caught by spam filters. I saw it and your account got closed right away.

If it was a commercial product I can only imagine it was within the remit of answering a question as commercial products are often the best solution.

That seems a little harsh. One "commercial product" link out of 69 non-spam answers and four pages of non-spam messages isn't the behaviour of a typical spammer.
Is there now a blanket ban on posting links to commercial products in QA, even if they're highlighted as such?

You misunderstood. I reported that message as spam. Headshot functionality was not in place for some day. This time, it worked and his account got closed.
Further, if Admin thinks so, he can get his account back. But yes, link to commercial product IS spam,so should be reported ('If it helps OP,it's allowed' is debatable). It's totally different thing whether to report account or not. In this case, i would not report the account.
