images on videos have no protocol, crashing outlook

    Hello,

    It looks like the recent update changes the way images for the video thumbnails are embedded and one is seeing image tags with no protocol specified, i.e.:

    <img src="//img.youtube.com/vi/5_jqhXNF98A/default.jpg"

    We have our feed sent out through feed burner and everyone who uses outlook 7 is finding that our emails do a hard crash of outlook because outlook interprets that double slash as pointing to the local server. Yes, I know this is a problem with outlook, but it the “no protocol” solution does cause problems with many rss readers too. Is there a way to have a checkbox that just uses http: or https for image embeds?

    Thank you,
    erico
