You are not paying attention. The problem has nothing to do with Word, per se, but with the permissions required to view the page concerned.

Your links will not work on a PC where the user does not have permission to view the account in question. For example, neither of your links in this thread (including the one with the redirect) work for me whether using Word or IE and the extra one you posted on the other site only takes me to a login page. That's probably because I don't have a Facebook account, so there's no way I can view pages there requiring any kind of login.

I'm happy you've found a workaround, but it's unlikely to work for anyone else who, like me, doesn't have a Facebook account and, possibly, not even for those who do but aren't friends with the person in question.
