Hi Amin,
Hmmm…… Couple of points
*************
**Point #1 **
*************
I have worked with dozens of affiliate systems and EVERY one allows you to use a plain URL link.
That doesn’t really make sense that a anchor tag must be used since there are many times that a person will just want to use the link NOT wrapped in an anchor tag. For example, many people use TinyURL.com or some other form of link cloaking.
This is a serious design flaw and limitation for any affiliate. Can it be fixed?

Okay I uploaded a test banner for a test. Whether I click your “Test Link” above, or my banner 2 clicks are being recorded, normally 1 second apart. Take a look at your stats and you’ll probably see the same thing.
What is causing this ?
Thanks,
..Mike
