That's because the whole text is a link. Obviously Mandrake can't code HTML
for shit. Line ~149:
<p>
<a name="ul">
<b>1- United Linux: why MandrakeSoft will not join.</b>
<p>
<a href="http://www.unitedlinux.com">United Linux</a> is a group effort by
four Linux vendors (Caldera, SuSE,
TurboLinux and Conectiva) to develop a common Linux distribution that will
bear the label "United Linux".
Obviously the error handling of other browsers automatically closes the <a
name="ul">, as it encounters the next <a> tag, but that is not correct
HTML.
I think Mandrake would be wise to check their page with some syntax checker.
