Lately, I am finding URLs that that lead to different post than the target.

Here is one such example.

For Pehchan album on Purani Yadein thread.
It is post no: 1066
I right click '1066' and get the following address:

http://www.hamaraforums.com/index.php?s=&showtopic=41412&view=findpost&p=669188

But, the above address doesn't take to me to Post #1066.
Past several weeks, I have come across several such instances.

Thanks in advance for help.

This is top page link
http://www.hamaraforums.com/index.php?showtopic=41412&st=900#

This is the link that you get from post #914 which is not working
http://www.hamaraforums.com/index.php?showtopic=41412&view=findpost&p=665035

one way to fix is to use prior post #913 to workaround this problem
http://www.hamaraforums.com/index.php?showtopic=41412&st=913

I think this problem is only happening in long threads. shorter threads seem to work just fine.

It is a bug.

post 874 works
http://www.hamaraforums.com/index.php?showtopic=41412&view=findpost&p=663181

post 875 doesn't work.

http://www.hamaraforums.com/index.php?showtopic=41412&view=findpost&p=663342

so post 875 and higher won't work.
