Its the first time i've ever heard of search engines following plain text URLs. Because of the volatility of the link length, using a redirection script for broken links wont do the trick. Do you really need to show the URL's in the plain text? | |

They aren't links, they are unlinked URLs as I thought I made clear. For example http://www.google.com <- that is not a link.
