If I click your WCA Profile, then my url changes to this:

https://api.viglink.com/api/click?f...70&title=WCA Link not working.&txt=2007KELL02

Edit:
If I look at the page source, then I see this:


<dl class="userinfo_extra">

<dt>Location</dt> <dd>Bangkok, Thailand</dd>
<dt>WCA Profile</dt> <dd><a href="http://www.worldcubeassociation.org/results/p.php?i=2007KELL02" alt="WCA Profile" target="_blank">2007KELL02</a></dd>

</dl>

Edit2:
Oh, seems to work fine in google chrome, but not in internet explorer....

possibly something to do with Amazon ads...

I have this at the end of the html page (chrome aswell):

<!-- VigLink: http://viglink.com -->
<script type="text/javascript">
var vglnk = { key: '8670c166de72c25ff129368b0a87ae25' };

(function(d, t) {
var s = d.createElement(t); s.type = 'text/javascript'; s.async = true;
s.src = '//api.viglink.com/api/vglnk.js?key=' + vglnk.key;
var r = d.getElementsByTagName(t)[0]; r.parentNode.insertBefore(s, r);
}(document, 'script'));
</script>
<!-- end VigLink -->

Shouldn't it be https rather than just http:

https://www.worldcubeassociation.org/results/p.php?i=2007KELL02

rather than

http://www.worldcubeassociation.org/results/p.php?i=2007KELL02

VigLink monitors links and affiliates them. It shouldn't interfere with where the URL goes though. On IE, what is the issue? Does it not redirect properly?

I've noticed this as well. I have a bookmark for my profile since people ask me about random things in it periodically. The first time I click it I get to the wca homepage. The second time it takes me to the actual page. Strange.
