Can't view that link at work, our Proxy software blocks it.

I opted out..... And when I click any link now I still get this api.viglink for a second or so before the new window will show 
When subsequently checking that viglink website it says that it is disabled... Apparently not 
Am I doing something wrong? You never actually own a Defender. You merely look after it for the next generation. http://youtu.be/yVRlSsJwD0o https://youtu.be/vmPr3oTHndg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_GtzTT9Pdl0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ABqKPz28e6A https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rLZ49Jce_n0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XvAsz_ilQYU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K8tMHiX9lSw https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=dxwjPuHIV7I https://vimeo.com/201482507 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZSixqL0iyHw |

Or is this something built into the forum software that adds the 'vgi' bit to a link?
Maybe Martin can offer some advice? 1999 Defender TD5 110 Regards John M0VAZ Econet Station 48 no clock |

From the FAQ: http://www.defender2.net/forum/faq.php#38
This is used by the site to raise a little bit of revenue from off-site sales and clicks. You can opt out if you wish, but there is no tracking of your purchases by me and remember that it helps pay for the site which doesn't charge a membership nor beg for donations from its members.  1988 90 Td5 NAS soft top

I'm sure he gets back more than he pays to advertise so don't listen to Matt Scrooge
Last time I checked I wasn't the one in a 911  1988 90 Td5 NAS soft top

Cheers Martin. I wasn't sure what it was doing / what it was for when I clicked the links. I think you need to up the costs so you can afford your 911 like Matt or start selling leather bound forums?  1999 Defender TD5 110
