I also get these almost every day. I've checked "view source" for many of
them and I've seen some where the underlying link is maybe a thousand
characters long. This leads me to think that if you merely click on one of
these links from within your email program (and it opens in your browser),
it's possible that some dangerous script or unchecked buffer overflow might
attempt to execute. I don't feel 100% confident that Microsoft has patched
all vulnerabilities like these.
It's getting so that I really hesitate to click on links in any message,
even in ones from vendors and organizations that I've been getting for
years.
