Webserver plugin does'nt register events

Hi All!

I'm trying to trigger events in EventGhost through a webpage but try as i might I can't get the events to register in the EventGhost log.

I've set upp a simple webpage as follows:
<html>
<head>
<title>EventGhost Webserver example</title>
</head>
<body>
<a href="example.html?TestEvent">Test Event</a>
</body>
</html>

The file is called "example.html" and the location is "Q:\Webpages\EventGhost"
In EventGhost I've added the Webserver-plugin and pointed out the folder "Q:\Webpages\EventGhost". I'm using port 80 and no username/password.

When I open the file "example.html" it loads fine but no events are registered in EventGhost when i click the link "Test Event".

The computer running EventGhost uses Windows 7
The option "Log only assigned and activated events" is not checked
I've tried different browsers (IE9, latest firefox, the standard browser on my old Symbian Phone).
I've tried running EventGhost as Administrator
I've tried different folders and different examplefiles.
I've tried turning off Windows Firewall.
I've tried turning off AVG Antivirus
I've tried different ports (80, 8080, 1234)

I don't know what more I can try...
Other events register fine, such as "clipboard change" and "mouse click" etc. but I just can't get any reaction from the webserver plugin.

I downloaded EventGhost yesterday (2012-06-29) so I can't have an outdated version.

Can anyone help me with this?

I tried your web page and it is working fine for me, it is generating events in my EG. Nothing wrong with that part.
Something else must be the reason.

How do you access the web page in your browser?

with: Q:\Webpages\EventGhost\example.html
or with 127.0.0.1/example.html
