When you submit a form with URLs in them to MySpace they are converted again back to MSP links. There is no way to get around this "feature". The script is only meant for users who want to see where they are going before clicking on a link. The script only changes the link in your browser.

After searching the net for a few hours before and after my last post, I came upon this site. I implemented the fix which causes the fixed links to be un-obfuscated and actually point/direct you to the correct site. In other words, I was able to bypass the msplinks in my own div overlay to correctly display and connect me to the page I wanted to link to, which happened to be the my comments and my pictures pages without connecting to a blank page as before. Here it is http://www.zucye.net/apuntes-tecnicos/myspace-bypass-msplinks/ Myspace sucks but if I'm gonna have one, it might as well be prettty dope. Thanks guys. I hope the fix works for you. Hooray!

I'm working on a div overlay but think I am encountering the MSPLINKS problem. My particular problem is that I am creating links to my comments and to my pictures. When the links are clicked, however, the browser is directed to a blank page. What can I do. I am using the same link that I see when I click on the my pictures/my comments link in my homepage. Is that the problem? What should I do? Hey. I’m working on a div overlay but think I am encountering the MSPLINKS problem.

My MySpace page features a customized Flash news system which enables users to read my current news via XML. At the bottom of each article, there is a button that when clicked provides an external link regarding the corresponding article. You're probably wondering how the hell I was able to achieve this on MySpace, but it's rather simple! Once the button is clicked, the link is automatically copied to the Windows Clipboard and then all the user has to do is paste the link in their browser window! Since they would most likely be unfamilar with this type of procedure, it would probably be in your best interest to place a tooltip over the button onRollOver instructing them to click the button and then paste the new link in their browser window.

You can use my Greasemonkey script or someone else's to change them in YOUR browser only. You might want to make a blog or a webpage with directions on how to disable ZoneAlarm if you are worried about people not being able to access your links.

I'm not a programmer but I do understand some basic stuff. I've just been updating my profile and I've put links on my page to other social networks like Facebook, Reverbnation and Last FM. Myspace changes all the links to MPSlinks, but when I try to click on the links in Internet Explorer (v.7) I get redirected to Zone Alarm page stating a "High Risk Website Warning!" and I'm not allowed to go to the webpages. I've got Zone Alarm & Zone Alarm Spy Blocker installed on my PC and I use it's firewall. This just made me think, since a lot of people do have Zone Alarm & Zone Alarm Spy Blocker, some of our fans or people checking out our profile won't be able to click on these links! Thats really annoying! Is there anything that can be done on the actual myspace profle so that everybody browsing the profile will get the actual correct links!?
