Typepad commenting broken

Twice today I've tried to comment on a blog hosted on typepad.com and when I post the comment I get an error message back saying


An error occurred...

Invalid URL 'http://absoblogginlutely.net'

Please correct the error in the form below, then press Post to post your comment."


The annoying thing is that the url is correct and works everywhere else. You also have to log in to typepads site to post a problem report (which is daft as I'm not the actual user of typepad)
Update Looks like I'm not about the only one with 74 other hits on google
Update Got an email back from typepad to say that they have now fixed it (and I can now comment again - woohoo)

I got the same error at 2 different typepad blogs late last week but I wasn't ambitious enough to pursue it. Thanks for following up on it. I moved on, assuming it was not me that was causing the error.
