Today I found some spammy messages which contained tinyurl links that were not checked by my DecodeShortURLs checker.

Checking the tinyurl by hand using wget, I found that the destination was a URL that hit some of my URIBL lists.

The issue is that if the method is omitted from the url it is not considered for DecodeShortURLs checking.

EG: <a href=3D"tinyurl.com/REDACTED"><B>Click here</B></a> does not get checked but <a href=3D"http://tinyurl.com/REDACTED";><B>Click here</B></a> does get checked.
This happens with SA 3.4.6

Note that this is specific to DecodeShortURLs, a methodless URL is still checked via direct URIBL rules.

Is this an issue with the DecodeShortURLs plugin or with SA?

Where would I find the most recent version of DecodeShortURLs plugin?

Thanks,
Dave
