For me colors work just fine in screen, it really depends on which
terminals one is attaching the screen from.
URLs don't work, but show up exactly as if they were disabled, no visual nor
accoustic problems with those (and work fine in gnome-terminal which is
recent).
That said, my TERM is actually screen.xterm-256color rather than just screen
(and xterm-256color in gnome-terminal).
