crafty_packratIt's adding its own affiliate links to any outbound link you have in your posts that doesn't already have one.
Uhm, I don't have any affiliate account, but that doesn't mean I want LJ add its own affiliate ID to *my* posts. This is why I haven't gone back to paying for the service, even though I pay for my DW accounts.
Also, apparently this opens you up to security holes via JavaScript? ... fun.
I'm thinking I might actually start using the DW posting feature that cross-posts to LJ but forces the comments to DW now. Because seriously, this seems SLEEZY.
