I can see how the links could have been misleading.  I didn't think to 
clean them up before sending the list out. 

But the "windowssecrets.com" site is fine.  All they're doing is passing 
you through to the MS site, possibly getting some "click" points along 
the way that they can show their advertisers.

You do have to watch where you'll be ending up when you click on a link, 
but those were straightforward, just going via the Windows Secrets 
site.  From their point of view, it's probably the safest way to go, 
since the end link remains under their control.
