Dave, thanks for this. Yet another redirector to sigh about. :( I was poking around and some variations of this apply, but don't hit your rule.
Such as: SSL sites: http://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.etrade.com No www: http://google.com/url?q=http://cardtraffic.com Apparently any of Google's sub domains (Except labs.google.com) http://groups.google.com/url?q=http://cardtraffic.com http://images.google.com/url?q=http://cardtraffic.com IE will gladly take a \ and use it after the .com http://images.google.com\url?q=http://cardtraffic.com or after the http part http:\\images.google.com\url?q=http://cardtraffic.com White space after the q will be taken <http://images.google.com/url?q= http://cardtraffic.com> If you changed the rule to: /http:(?:\/|\\)(?:\/|\\).{0,10}\.google\.com(?:\/|\\)url\?q=\s?https?:/i It should match all of these variations. Also, I think your question mark that comes after url and before q needed to be escaped. I have a question about URI tests that hopefully some could answer. Are they decoded, or is it possible to decode them? For example would: http://images.google.com\url?%71=http://cardtraffic.com Now will the rule above or below fail since the q is represented by it's hex code in the URL? Or is the hex code translated to q for the uri test?
