I'm setting up a website using Google Sites.
If I add a hyperlink to a page and select 'Web Address', then enter http://www.example.com as the link, the actual page ends up being rendered with
http://www.google.com/url?q=http://www.example.com
as the hyperlink address. This injects an annoying 'redirecting you to www.example.com' Google page and a two-second delay into following hyperlinks off my page.
Is there any way to turn this behaviour off?
Whatever was causing this behaviour, it seems to have stopped after a few days. No idea why, but I'll call that a fix - the site was very new at the time I posted, so possibly it's something to do with Google tracking people filling pages with dubious links?
