Looking at the links, most of them are to http://www.linkedin.com/blink?simpleRedirect= [long-encoded-link] Looks to me like some spammer figured out the encoding (probably something simple like base64) and that the redirect wasn't linkedin-site- limited, thus allowing them to mask whatever link they wanted and hide behind linkedin's formerly not too terrible reputation, tho it's surely dropping fast due to the spammers now. I've gotten a few of these via email (my lists are via newsgroup via gmane, so entirely separate app used) as well, and the tibdixious name looks familiar, but this is the first I've noticed the redirect-link. -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
