Microsoft stealing my Products Webpage links!


Recommended Posts

Posted

I was looking at my store (Blue Dragon Creations) and noticed that the link on the XP BootSkins, instead of going to stardock.com like it's supposed to, is going to the Microsoft Corporation web site! If you look at the url, it says http://www.stardock.com/products/bootskin/. If you mouse over it, it says the same thing. In admin, same thing. But when you click it, it goes to microshaft. Is this happening to anyone else? Anyone know why it's happening to me? The links worked correctly when I made them, I check all listings after I post them to the store. This is crazy and I want to fix it. I don't want people to think I don't know how to make a link!

I went to your catalog page and could not find the link you refer to. I did however go to the free category and then xp bootskins with no problem.

Although on the individual product page this link does not work:

It looks like a redirect, but I get server not found.

It's the

part that was redirecting to microsoft. On any of the pages within the XP BootSkins category the products webpage is supposed to go to Stardock to download the program, but instead was going to microsoft. It seemed really odd to me. Now you say that you're getting page not found.I checked the link I was using, and it goes to stardock when I copy & paste it into the browser.

When I click the link, it tries to go here:

http://www.bluedragoncreations.com/catalog/redirect.php?action=url&goto=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.stardock.com%2Fproducts%2Fbootskin%2F&osCsid=4b37a0f481ebd30489c85cbab3a85cb3

I don't know why. I just scoured the admin for any kind of redirect, and all I can find is "download by redirect" and that's set to false. Any idea what the deal is?

I was looking at the redirect.php (since it's referenced in the link) Is it something in this part of the code?:

	case 'url':
  if (isset($HTTP_GET_VARS['goto']) && tep_not_null($HTTP_GET_VARS['goto'])) {
	$check_query = tep_db_query("select products_url from " . TABLE_PRODUCTS_DESCRIPTION . " where products_url = '" . tep_db_input($HTTP_GET_VARS['goto']) . "' limit 1");
	if (tep_db_num_rows($check_query)) {
	  tep_redirect('http://' . $HTTP_GET_VARS['goto']);
	}
  }
