Hi, OK to be a little less ambiguous (apologies for that), the redirects of the urls I'm probing happen within scripts, like those used in affiliate links, or url shorteners. But it just so happens that when say a user clicks a link, they don't only get redirected from point A to point B, but actually get sent through point A.1, point A.2, and then point A.3.
The purpose of this is to gather the domains to determine which ones to add to a whitelist. Thanks On Nov 4, 4:05 pm, mdipierro <[email protected]> wrote: > what do you mean by "masked".
