I didn’t add that; that's just what happens where altavista.com redirects to.  
What I changed, the second time around, was removing "https:\\" from the URL, 
since I suspected (apparently correctly) that it's what triggered that 
safe-link thing.

I suppose the suffix is added to help inform someone how many dinosaurs are 
using the internet.
