One is a "forum" and the other is a "newsgroup". Different protocol -- the
forums are http based and this is not AFAIK (it would be nntp I think).

Maybe -- news readers are tuned to understand nntp, whereas a browser that
is reading http is more generalized... but the world is moving towards
http... so...
