are spiders able to follow this type of link?

I'm not losing any PR so, I wonder if the cgi is impeding

[TomJones]

I'm using click manager to register how many referrals I'm sending so, my links go like this:

<a href="http://www.example.com/folder/clickmanager.cgi?dl=http://www.widget-example.com/" target="_blank">

I have had this format for several months now and, I'm not losing any Page Rank. Don't get me wrong, I'm not looking to give away PR but, I also want to help the sites I'm linking to. Do you think the spiders are able to pick up widget-example's site link from my example.com link?

Hmmmm, this doesn't seem like a technology question.

Actually, it's sort of a technology question.

What HTTP code redirect are you giving with that CGI?

[TomJones]

Isn't just about everything a technology issue? Spiders, bots, and leaking PR just seems more of a search engine thing.

I think it's a simple redirect that replaces/removes the link code, leaving only the HTTP address after registering the click. I may be wrong (I'm not real clear on redirects) but, it's a fairly straight forward script.

I've looked over all links on the site and, I've concluded that the script more than likely is hindering the spiders. Other pages that have simple outbound links seem to have lost rank in the last few updates.
