WordPress removes file:// references

  • [ Moved to the Fixing WordPress sub-forum. ]

    We are using WP Multisite for our company intranet. We have a user trying to reference a file on a network sure.

    I (a super admin) can make a reference to the file using the unc like:

    <a href="file:////theserver/theshare/thedirectory/thefile.txt">

    However, when the user (an admin for his subsite) tries it, WordPress removes the reference to FILE and it becomes a relative link and fails.

    How can I correct it for just that user?
