Q: A url I wanted to track did not work with your service. You can check it out by going to this full url and clicking the PayPal button at the bottom, see the result, then try the shortened version. it fails.

A: Some scripts will not work within a framed page. Our cloaked trackers use an invisable top frame in order hide the final destination URL. This top frame may have kept the PayPal payment script from re-directing correctly. This has only been an issue a couple of times and both times it was while using the 7 dollar secrets script. Always test your tracking links and if it’s keeping the payment script from working you will need to un-cloak the tracker to correct the problem.

Q: In internet explorer when a person clicks my tracking link they get a SQL error message on sign-up. I only get this error message on the sign-up page when people go through my ad tracker site. When people go to my sign-up page through my main site, I don’t get the error message.

A: Our trackers can effect certain scripts when cloaked. Up to now I’ve only seen it effect certain PayPal scripts such as the seven dollar affiliate script. You may need to uncloak the tracker.
