- sp332 12y agoI'm not sure how they fix :visited but the URL on that page looks like this: href="http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0CB8QFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fycombinator.com%2F&ei=OtmqU9TnN9KNqAbhwYDoAw&usg=AFQjCNFz8v92zbzOCTKbQaynlEeOQbu1NA&sig2=loQ5iO_OGgdXSsdzQ5jqxw"
- Aldo_MX 12y agoThey change the URL the moment you press any mouse button. So when you release the mouse button and the contextual menu gets displayed, it already has the new link with tracking included. This is pure evilness by your favorite don't-do-evil company.
