Default Amazon Links

When I click on an Amazon link in a thread, it will briefly open, then close right away. This is under a second. Is this problem me or is it a forum glitch?

Happens to me as well (using Chrome). Only work-around I found was to copy the link and open in a new tab.

Here's an example, post #3. If I click the Amazon link it shuts right down. If I copy and paste in a new tab it goes thru after the 2 redirect links.

It appears to be only Chrome that is happens in for me. I just tried Firefox and Safari, both those work as expected.

i tried in chrome and no matter what I do the link always opens in a new tab. are you saying the amazon link opens in the same window so you're being taken away from HDF? there is a 5 second delay thingy that our anti DDOS provider implements that might be part of it.
