Does Anyone Here Have Problems Direct Linking a Buy.com Product?
When I try to direct link a Buy.com product, it doesn't lead to the correct webpage. It leads to a page that says:
I also noticed that "http://www.anrdoezrs.net" was added to the direct linked URL.
Here is a test example: Planet Earth-Complete Collection: $59.99.
Thank you for shopping at Buy.com.

Yeah, it changes the URL for me too. Looks like the forum is replacing the url for some reason.

This last time, I just typed www. buy . com without tags (or spaces) and it was replaced with the above.

DVD Talk Platinum Edition
Presumably, DVD Talk is using anrdoezers.net to get some click-referral income for buy . com. The site automatically changes the text the same way it would alter any banned swear words. Unfortunately, it's doing it wrong.
If you wanted to paste a link to www. buy. com/prod/pans-labyrinth/q/loc/322/204297843.html and did it the normal way, you'd get
http://www.anrdoezrs.net/click-28092...204297843.html
I assume the part to the left of the "URL=" is some identifier for DVD Talk. The part to the right is wrong. Just replace it with the correct URL but URL-encode all the reserved characters. For example, / becomes %2F and . becomes %2E
The resulting link should work
